The thoughts of everyone at Liberal Judaism are with Her Majesty the Queen and the Royal Family as they mourn the passing of HRH Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh, who died peacefully this morning.

As the longest-serving royal consort in history, we will be forever grateful for his lifetime of service to this country and friendship to our Jewish community.

May his memory be a blessing, and may we all be inspired by the good and charitable deeds he undertook during his life.

By Rabbi Charley Baginsky (Liberal Judaism Chief Executive Officer) and Rabbis Rebecca Birk and René Pfertzel (Co-Chairs of the Conference of Liberal Rabbis and Cantors)
