Israel at our Heart
Sunday 10 December, 10:30-12:00
at EHRS

In the middle of the festival of Chanukah we turn our heart to Israel, where the Maccabees took action during a previous crisis for the Jewish homeland.

This is an event for learning, discussion and experience with our Rabbis and their guests to which all are welcome. It is taking place at the same time as our EHRS family Chanukah party which you are welcome to join for the communal candle lighting at 12:00.

These are the learning sessions we look forward to offering – there will be two sessions in each of the 45 minute ‘slots’ 10:30-11:15 and 11:15-12:00  – All are taking place on the first floor of the main EHRS building:

Rabbi Steven Katz on the men and women who created Israel

Rabbi Debbie Young-Somers and Reverend Ray Gaston on ‘Journeying together, A Priest and a Rabbi and the challenging and changing dialogue around Israel and Palestine over a decade’. To learn more about Rev’d Gaston’s journey please read this amazing article: Fathom – In Defence of the Jewish People: A Christian Priest Reflects on 7 October (fathomjournal.org)

Rabbi Mark Goldsmith on talking about Israel with your non-Jewish friends

Rabbi Tanya Sakhnovich on self-care when Israel is under threat
