The Good Will Foundation and the Jewish (Litvak) Community of Lithuania invite you to mark International Holocaust Remembrance Day at 3:00 P.M. on January 27 at the Choral Synagogue in Vilnius at Pylimo street no. 39.
There will be readings of the names of Holocaust victims, brief testimonies of survivors and a prayer for the dead.
January 27 was the date in 1945 when Auschwitz was liberated. On November 1, 2005, the General Assembly of the United Nations adopted a resolution making January 27 as International Holocaust Remembrance Day.
