LIGHT OF OUR SURVIVORS
Honoring Their Light
Honoring Our Survivors
Light of Our Survivors honors Holocaust survivors, their descendants, and the 6 Million Jewish lives lost in the Holocaust. An initiative of 6 Million Lights, its innovative light-making workshops foster conversation and community, as we gather together Holocaust Survivors, their descendants, and a diverse mix from the interfaith community. We share stories, memories, and wisdom while creating beautiful illuminated paper lamps that serve as luminous reminders of each maker’s intention to share light with the world.

The mere presence and participation of Survivors strongly impacts workshop participants.
As one participant shared, “Making lights alongside Survivors was a once in a lifetime experience for me.”

I am sharing this wonderful workshop experience with my classmates in Taiwan and encouraging them to do a project like Six Million Lights to commemorate the Chinese lives lost during World War II and the Nanjing massacre.

It was a privilege to be with survivors and the children of survivors and to hear their stories. As a non-Jew, I particularly liked the inclusion of Hebrew in some of the readings. I absolutely love the warm glow of this light in my home. It is a beacon of remembrance for the lost and the glow of hope for the future.

I was nervous about the lamp making process, but it was surprisingly easy. And although I’m not artistic, every time I look at my beautiful light, it gives me a warm feeling. I’m both a Survivor and a descendant and I feel honored to have participated in this workshop.

An initiative of 6 Million Lights, its innovative light-making workshops foster conversation and community, as we gather together Holocaust Survivors, their descendants, and a diverse mix from the interfaith community. We share stories, memories, and wisdom while creating beautiful illuminated paper lamps that serve as luminous reminders of each maker’s intention to share light with the world.
