Three years on, we remember and we learn.

In the immediate aftermath of 7 October, Covenant & Continuity, our weekly Rabbi Sacks inspired Parsha class, became, for many of us, an island where we could switch off the news and learn Torah. An anchor during an extraordinarily turbulent time.

Tonight, we hope it can once again be that anchor.

Our first Covenant & Continuity of the new Torah cycle will be led by Daniel Taub, former Israeli Ambassador to the UK, exploring:

Does Israel Belong to the Jews? An ancient political debate

🕖 Tonight, 7pm UK
💻 Online Only
👉 lsjs.ac.uk/covenant

The learning will be dedicated to all the victims of 7 October and the war. We will conclude with Yizkor and Tehillim, followed by an additional 15 minutes for anyone who would like to stay, reflect and share memories or stories.

In memory of David Gallick z’l

So much has happened since 7 October 2023, but the horror and heartbreak of that day haven’t become any easier to comprehend.

For three years, we’ve prayed. We’ve prayed for the hostages to come home. We’ve prayed for families to be reunited. We’ve prayed for better days, even in the darkest of hours.

We remember those who won’t come home. Those who were murdered, and the families for whom three years doesn’t make the loss any smaller.

But somehow, through all of it, there has always been hope. In people holding each other up. In communities pulling together. In families rebuilding. In choosing to keep going.

Three years on, we remember, we will never forget.

It was heartwarming to see all this year's teacher trainees together last week as they started their training. Trainees met their mentors over lunch and began what promises to be an intense but rewarding year.
