Don’t Miss JCA’s Immigrant Freedom Seder this Sunday. This year will highlight personal stories from people impacted by the marriage amendment and foreclosure crisis.

Sukkot is the time of the year when Jews think about housing. Like the sukkah, housing is temporary, fragile and frightening for some of the members of our Jewish community, and our Minnesota community as a whole. But Minnesota residents facing foreclosure have a strong ally in the non-profit organization Jewish Community Action.
