Oud & Food
This year’s Oud and Food in July centred on the history, customs, culture, music and food of the Jewish communities of the Arabian peninsula. EHRS members and guests of all generations immersed ourselves in the Jewish communities of Yemen, Aden and Bahrain for a delightful morning organised by the EHRS Education and Youth Team with Rabbi Mark and Cantor Tamara. The morning was made extra special by the first hand testimony of members originally from Aden and Bahrain. Over the past summers we have studied the Jewish communities of the Carribean, Iran and Iraq, Egypt and Morroco. Who should we learn about in next year’s Oud and Food?
Lag B'Omer at EHRS
On Friday, our EHRS courtyard was filled as families came together to celebrate Lag B’Omer with campfire fun, archery, and learning.
We shared food, stories, and spirit in a truly joyful evening. Thanks to everyone who joined us!
Israel 2024
Our community joins in solidarity with our brothers and sisters in Israel in shock and revulsion at the terrorist incursion into Israel by Hamas on 7 October 2023. We mourn those who were murdered and pray for the release of the hostages who were kidnapped into Gaza. We support the communities affected and share our heartfelt care with all the people of Israel. As Jews who pray and act for peace we hope that the people of Gaza will be able to throw off Hamas tyranny so that Israel and Gaza can speedily come to live in peace with each other.
