Today we pause to remember and honor the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country.

Memorial Day is more than the beginning of summer — it is a time of reflection, gratitude, and remembrance for those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedoms.

We honor their courage, their families, and their enduring legacy. 🇺🇸

On Wednesday, Nik Jakobs was planting corn. On Thursday, the 41-year-old Illinois cattle farmer stood in a two-acre cornfield preparing to plant something else: a synagogue.

This week, Jakobs and his community broke ground on a planned 4,000-square-foot building that will also house a Holocaust museum inspired by the story of Jakobs’ grandparents, Edith and Norbert, who survived the war after Christian families in the Netherlands hid them in their homes for years.

Jakobs described the future museum as a place devoted not only to Jewish history, but to teaching the dangers of hatred and division. “If you have the choice to be right or kind,” he said, repeating advice from his grandmother, “choose kind.”

The synagogue rising from this Illinois cornfield will house pieces of the past: Many of the sacred objects (ark, Torah, bimah, stained glass windows) were donated to Jakobs by closing congregations across America.

A breakfast and groundbreaking ceremony yesterday, coinciding with the National Day of Prayer, brought out pastors, farmers, city officials and members of neighboring churches. “I was so happy to see bagels, lox and cream cheese,” said Rev. James Keenan, a Catholic priest originally from Brooklyn. “It reminded me of home.”
