Last month, a delegation of North American Jewish leaders quietly arrived in Kyiv for a first-of-its-kind mission to take stock of the war and its effects on the Jewish community. During that trip, the group was granted a last-minute audience with Ukraine's (Jewish) president Volodymyr Zelensky. In the latest episode of “The Glue,” Jewish Federations of North America President and CEO Eric Fingerhut discusses what happened in that meeting and talk to Ukrainians on the ground about how their community is powering through these uncertain and difficult days. https://lnkd.in/eVBE8mYc

“We need to face the facts. This weaponizing of women’s bodies, this weaponizing of sexual assault and rape in warfare since Oct. 7, has taken the entire human race many steps backward. Civilization is failing these captives right now. And it is failing every one of us.” Read more from Israel’s First Lady, Michal Herzog: https://ow.ly/Hfzb50SAIQw #BlueRibbonsForIsrael #BringThemHome #BringThemHomeNOW

At a time of rising antisemitism in the United States, a group of 30 Evangelical and Jewish leaders joined for an interfaith mission to Poland to study Jewish life and its horrific losses during the Holocaust. The trip was organized by Rabbi Yehiel Poupko, Rabbinic Scholar of Jewish United Fund and Dr. Philip Ryken, President of Wheaton College. This is the third such trip, which teaches Christian leaders about Jewish culture and tradition and encourages them to become allies of the Jewish community against the ongoing scourge of antisemitism.
