Daniel Lischinsky and Joshua Turnil
Our special guest speakers next Shabbat, July 18 will include a father who experienced a great tragedy due to antisemitism.
Sarah Milgrim and her boyfriend, Yaron Lischinsky, were gunned down by an anti-Israel terrorist in 2025. Next Shabbat, Yaron’s father, Daniel, will be our guest speaker for our 1:30 pm class. All ages are welcome and encouraged to attend.
Daniel offers a deeply personal perspective on the human cost of antisemitism. He will emphasize the importance of choosing compassion, friendship and solidarity during difficult times.
Daniel will be accompanied by Joshua Turnil, who is uniquely qualified to address antisemitism. His Paris office is often the target of antisemitic threats and is under the constant vigilance of the French police. Also, he has worked side by side with leaders of the French Jewish community and church leaders to actively fight against antisemitism.
