It is my pure joy to invite you to participate in a timely and insightful lecture by Rabbi Pesach Wolicki.
Presently Rabbi Wolicki serves as the Executive Director of Israel 365 Action, a position through which he has forged meaningful cooperation and partnership between Christian and Jewish leaders. Many will recognize him as a popular columnist for The Jerusalem Post with many faithful readers. He also serves as a host for the Shoulder to Shoulder podcast drawing a large audience of Christians and Jews exploring current issues of faith and culture in the public square (shoulder2shoulder.libsyn.com).
He received his rabbinical ordination from the Chief Rabbinate of Jerusalem being ordained by Chief Rabbi Itzhak Kolitz. In Virginia, he served as a congregational rabbi for two years at Adath Jeshurun Orthodox Synagogue. He also served as the Rosh Yeshiva (Head of a Jewish Seminary Academy, Yeshivat Yesodei Hatorah) in Beit Shemesh for ten years.
For me, he has been a personal friend for over 25 years. As the associate director of the Center for Jewish-Christian Understanding and Cooperation (2015-2019), he came year after year, to give presentations to graduate seminary classes which I taught. He also sometimes addressed the entire Graduate School of Theology and Ministry at Oral Roberts University. He even fostered communication and interaction between his Yeshiva students in Israel and my students in the US. Not only is he a thoughtful scholar, a gifted educator, and a practical theologian, but he is also a courageous activist confronting anti-Semitism and conspiracy theories in social media. Moreover, he is a dedicated husband and father. He has eight children. Three of his sons and one son-in-law are now serving in the IDF.
Set your alarm on your phone. You do not want to miss this extremely important presentation on Wednesday, 29th of April at 20:00 IST. You are invited also to participate in a time of questions and answers.
Yours fraternally,
Dr. Brad H. Young,
President ETRFI
