As we prepare for the annual NTHI event in Rochester, we are mindful of the challenging days in which we live. We are living in a sobering hour where anti-Israel rhetoric is heard daily; global anti-Semitism is reaching disturbing levels; and the strategies to isolate Israel socially, economically and politically are gaining strength. In response, CUFI and the Christian community in Rochester call upon every conscious individual who cares about social justice to talk a stand. Please make every effort to be part of the NTHI this year as we demonstrate our steadfast love and unwavering commitment to Israel and Jewish communities throughout the world.
