An evening of harmony at The North Shore Synagogue.
The “Nations Bless Israel” Service held the North Shore Synagogue in Lindfield was an historical and memorable event for over 400 Christians and Jews.
This service was run by The Rev. The Hon. Fred Nile MLC and his wife Silvana, to build love, respect and unity between the Christian and Jewish communities of Sydney and beyond and to show their desire to see Israel and its people blessed.
Silvana Nile said that the main focus of this event is to acknowledge that Christians are genuine in choosing to stand together with the Jewish community, to praise God and to bless Israel.
Rabbi Lewin, Senior Minister of The North Shore Synagogue hosted the event, with Cantor Zvi Teichtahl and Ben Oxley singing beautiful Hebrew and Australian renditions of their National Anthems.
Jewish guest speakers included Dr. David Adler, President of the Australian Jewish Association, Yair Miller CEO of the NSW United Israel Appeal and Dr Ron Weiser Member of the Board of Governors of The Jewish Agency.
The Christian speakers Rev Hon Fred Nile, Pastor Peter Walker, Judy Russell and Sister Gideona from the Evangelical sisters of Mary delivered in their speeches strategic action plans and offered hope, support, encouragement and love to the Jewish audience on their 70th anniversary of the rebirth of the State of Israel.
