In today’s world, where challenges often seem insurmountable, the need for strength of character rooted in empathy, integrity, and kindness is essential for creating a more just and harmonious society. How do we, as individuals, and a community, embody these attributes even when it’s hard and even when it feels impossible?
Join us for the Center for Jewish Care Luncheon on Tuesday, November 12, 2024. Together, we will explore the centrality of compassion in Jewish thought and how this core value can serve as a catalyst for social transformation. Drawing from ancient texts, contemporary case studies, and his own experiences as a social activist, Rabbi Shmuly will illustrate how acts of compassion can bridge divides, heal communities, and drive systemic change.
Rabbi Shmuly, a global social justice activist and educator is committed to improving our communities through Torah learning, social action, and leadership development. His writings have appeared in outlets including the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, the Guardian, and the Atlantic, among many other secular and religious publications. He has also served as a rabbinic representative, facilitator, and speaker at the World Economic Forum in Geneva and Davos. Rabbi Shmuly’s religious journey was filmed for the Independent Lens/PBS documentary “The Calling.”
