TOPIC: Israel and Anti-Semitism

WHEN:       Wednesday April 17, 2019 at 7:00 p.m.

WHERE:    Congregation L’Dor Va-Dor  9804 South Military Trail Suite E2-4 Boynton Trail Center

WHO:         Interfaith leaders and the community

WHAT:     

 “If we do not stand for something, we will fall for anything.”

Let us all stand together against hatred and join with Muslims and those of every religion in standing up against hate and intolerance.   Hatred of Muslims only helps ISIS and Al Qaeda inspire more recruits to commit acts of terror against the “other” in an even more radicalized war of religions. This is worse than fighting fire with fire; it is like fighting fire with gasoline and just causes a bigger fire.   To put out the fires of violence and fanaticism, we do not need more fire, rather we need reason, dialogue and love.  Join us in using religion to build bridges of love and tear down walls of separation and to offer a moment of silence for the victims in New Zealand, followed by an end of silence and an interfaith call to action.
