The synagogue cancelled Sunday school and an end of the summer party last weekend after the letters, which contained a “specific threat,” were received on Saturday evening, according to WRAL.
Synagogue officials would not tell the news station what was in the letters, except to say that they contained “hateful rhetoric.”
