7:30pm, after services
From afar, we have been following the news from Israel. As Progressive Zionists, it’s with deep concern that we note the threats of extremist elements of the government to religious pluralism, human rights and the judicial system. Rabbi Mikelberg has just returned from a Rabbinic Mission to Israel. Coincidentally, Rev Gary van der Meer of St John’s Church has also just returned from a Christian Study Mission. The two are delighted to have an opportunity to reflect on their recent journeys, in particular the realities on the ground that they witnessed at this important moment in time.
