It was a great honour for Liberal Judaism CEO Rabbi Charley Baginsky and The Ark Synagogue’s Rabbi Lea Mühlstein to meet with the President of Israel, Isaac Herzog, today.
The President reaffirmed his commitment to the centrality of the relationship with the UK and with all denominations of Judaism.
We are also exceptionally proud that Lea, who is the International Chair of Arzenu, was warmly welcomed by the President as a friend and colleague.
The President, who met with rabbis, leaders and young people from across the British Jewish community, said: “My British-Jewish heritage shaped my identity and mission as President, and today felt like a warm family reunion. The Jewish world is one big family.”
