“Judaism is the ongoing conversation of the Jewish people with itself, with Heaven, and with the world.” – Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks zt”l
Communities in Conversation is a global day of learning in memory of Rabbi Sacks, marking his yahrzeit, the anniversary of his passing.
Please join us in November to remember Rabbi Sacks’ impact on the Jewish world and beyond, learning and teaching his Torah.
The 2023 theme is “The Home We Build Together”, a concept that resonated deeply with Rabbi Sacks. Whether you choose to invite guest speakers, explore Rabbi Sacks’ teachings, or utilise our provided resources, communities, groups, and individuals are encouraged to plan events in their own unique way.
If you have any questions about getting involved, please contact Louise at louise@rabbisacks.org.
View a special message from Gila Sacks, Rabbi Sacks’ youngest daughter, recorded for the first Communities in Conversation in 2021:
The New 2023 Learning Resources
The Home We Build Together
The Home We Build Together is a theme that Rabbi Sacks often returned to. We have prepared these study pages for you to enhance your understanding of this idea, with the use of videos, articles, and biblical extracts, as well as quotes from Rabbi Sacks and discussion questions.
