Welcome the Stranger - The Jewish Response to Immigration
THIS THURSDAY at the FJCC, 7-9PM
Want to learn about the Jewish response to our current immigration situation? "Welcome the Stranger" is the most frequently mentioned Mitzvah in the Torah. So important, it is mentioned 136 times. Let's honor this mitzvah by joining a discussion with
Ms. Cathryn Miller-Wilson, the Executive Director of Pennsylvania HIAS, (
the global Jewish nonprofit that protects refugees).
No RSVP is required, and the event is open to the community.
