Join us for Shabbat on Friday 26th April as we invite you to meet Magen Inon, a London-based father of three from Israel who is an educator and holds a PhD in philosophy of education.

Magen has worked in various domains to cultivate liberal values and leadership skills, including with students at top universities, high-ranking military officers, promising young adults and inmates. Since the murder of his parents in the Hamas attack on Israel on the 7th October 2023, Magen Inon has become a leading voice for peace between Israelis and Palestinians within international media, local communities and the political elite.

 "From this unbearable feeling of pain and distress, I wish to speak about what I believe is my parents’ legacy. People from both sides of the border have good reasons to hate one another. This is being used by those who feed on hate. But this cannot be the only option. My family does not seek revenge."

We are honoured to host Magen after the Shabbat evening service, where we will hear his story and ask our own questions before coming together for Kiddush. Let us know if you plan to attend by booking in below.
