Together we make up a framework in which we
celebrate our gayness in the Way of
Yachad (Hebrew for
together).
We do not consider our
group(s) as an alternative to the other institutions
of Germany's Jewish Community.
Yachad should be in addition to the Jewish
life in this country.
At the moment we have several regional
groups. They carry out their activities on their
own. Besides monthly meetings - sometimes private,
sometimes in public (Cafes, Restaurants, etc.) - we
make have our own parties, excursions and
meetings/services for the Jewish Holidays as well.
The annual Christopher Street Day Parades in the
different cities are a chance for Yachad chapters to
participate in the parade/ festivities, and for
members to visit each other.
Internationally, we are in excellent
contact with other Jewish Gay and Lesbian Groups in
the Netherlands, in Austria, Great Britain, France
and the USA, and other countries as well.
In the World Congress of Gay and Lesbian Jewish
Organizations,
Yachad is a member, with other Jewish Gay
Organizations around the world.
As a Jewish
group, we declare our solidarity to the Gay and
Lesbian Movement in Israel, where we have very good
relationships to their organizations.
If you are interested in
Yachad, please contact us.
