West London Synagogue’s Eretz Programme in partnership with the World Zionist Organisation presents Herzog 100 Dinner – celebrating the centenary & legacy of Chaim Herzog (z”l)
Friday 19 October, 7pm (Kabbalat Shabbat service 6pm – all welcome)
Join us for this special Friday Night Community Dinner, celebrating the centenary of one of Israel’s great statesmen, Chaim Herzog. Born in Belfast in 1918, Herzog became the sixth President of the State of Israel between 1983 and 1993. Through short film clips and music, we will take a fresh look at the lasting legacy of this extraordinary world leader, great Zionist visionary, powerful statesman and brilliant orator.
In Conversation with Rabbi Lea Mühlstein will be our distinguished speakers, Chaim Herzog’s sons – Isaac (‘Bougie’) Herzog (Chairman of the Jewish Agency for Israel and former leader of the Opposition in the Knesset) and Brigadier General Michael Herzog (senior negotiator with the Palestinians, Jordan and Syria)
This one-off event is likely to be a sell-out success, so early booking is essential.
