At Beth Tzedec, we understand the importance of cultivating lasting friendships and maintaining ties to the community, which is why our senior-focused initiatives aim to foster a sense of belonging and provide a supportive network. As Rabbi Steve Wernick has pointed out in his sermons, loneliness is a disease and community is the cure. Join us to connect with like-minded individuals, engage in meaningful activities, and create lasting memories.
Beth Tzedec doubly recognizes the importance of families sharing Jewish experiences together! We’re creating programming that is meaningful and enjoyable for the whole family – children, parents and grandparents. As the largest conservative synagogue in the world, we maintain Jewish traditions across generations, while creating new ones.
Reb Steve will share coffee with Dani Dayan, Chairman of Yad Vashem in Jerusalem. They will have a discussion about the Holocaust and Yad Vashem.
This week's conversation will be livestreamed to Beth Tzedec's Facebook page and YouTube channel. Comment with your questions for Dani on either platform!
Dani Dayan served most recently as Israel's Consul General in New York from 2016 until 2020. Previously, he served as Chairman of the YESHA Council and before that served as Chairman of the Board and CEO of Elad Software Systems Ltd., a company that he founded. In addition, Dayan volunteers as the Head of the Advisory Board of Nefesh B'Nefesh and until his posting in New York was a member of the Yad Vashem Council.
