Friday, April 13th a group of 12 confirmands, parents and members of Chapel Hill hopped on the van and joined our Jewish friends for worship at Temple EmanuEl.
We have been learning about our Jewish roots and how our faith is grounded in and born out of the Jewish faith. Judaism was the faith of Jesus and the faith of the first Christians. The Gentiles embraced this new Christianity even stronger than the Jews of Jesus’ day and spread the Good News all over the world.
We learned that every Temple/Synagogue will always have an image of the Ten Commandments, a menorah, and an eternal light present at the front of the congregation.
We enjoyed our time together with our new Jewish friends and learned more about our church history.
In Christ,
Pastor JoNell
