The Rossing Newsletter – April 2020

The webinar was devoted to presenting and analyzing the findings of the Rossing Center’s recent report and survey. It further examined the growing incidence of violence and offered insights into the underlying factors shaping this reality, with particular emphasis on the complex situation of Christians in the Hole Land, especially in East Jerusalem.

In honor of the upcoming International Women’s Day, the latest webinar was dedicated to pioneering women in the field of religion:
Rabbi Naamah Kelman is the first woman ordained as rabbi in Israel.
Rev. Sally Azar is the first woman ordained to the priesthood in the Holy Land.

Led by Dr. Sarah Bernstein, the discussion explored the role of these women in religious society and the resistance they encountered as religious leaders. The conversation led to fascinating insights and connections, both across the different fields and within each community.
