Our second CCJ #limmud event of the day: CCJ student leaders @Clarelevy97, @celiagould_ and @davidoff_jos share their experiences of interfaith on campus, and how we can break out of our bubbles.
Our Edinburgh Leaders (and @EdinburghJSoc president) are out raising money today for @HIASrefugees and engaging students in interfaith conversations ☪️✝️✡️
Very grateful to have been able to speak today at the launch of @EdinInterfaith new educational resource - The Ground We Share- on the importance of Interfaith education.
We had a great time in Edinburgh tonight with our first event of #interfaithweek -Speed Faithing! Students engaged in questions ranging from “what is their favourite festival?” To “is it difficult being a student with a religion”
.@UJS_UK will be showing support for #ShowUpForShabbat this week. We encourage Jewish students in the UK and Ireland to find their local community at https://t.co/XW0isHakJz, or contact us for support in organising peer-led minyanim.
Thank you @CCJUK for a fantastic student leadership training. It was so incredible having such diverse dialogue with everyone. Looking forward to see how it manifests on campus! @CCJStudents
Massive Mazal Tov to my amazing sister @Unbelevyable. Watching her be the life and soul of every Jsoc she has been in over the last 6 years has been truly inspiring and she couldn’t have deserved this more 🎉✡️ https://t.co/isp3VIM0Rs
And our final award of the night. The Alan Sennitt Outstanding Contribution to Campus Life, goes to...
Sarah Levy from @GlasgowJSoc!
6 years of daily dedication to Jewish life on campus in both St. Andrews and Glasgow. Sarah, we are so proud of you and wishing you all the best!
It was amazing to hear about the work being done in Scotland to help communities like Rwanda rebuild (especially the Agahozo Shalom orphan villages, modelled after the Israeli orphan villages) and to reaffirm the message of love over hate
Today I was privileged to attend a meeting at Scottish Parliament, as the Jewish representative of Edinburgh Interfaith Association, to hear from Adama Dieng (UN under secretary General for prevention of Genocide)
