A Plea for Peace at Ann Arbor’s Jewish Community Center

Rabbi Aharon Goldstein, Chabad of Ann Arbor, addresses the crowd during Sunday’s Community Gathering for Peace in Israel held at the Jewish Community Center of Washtenaw County. The gathering was held as a way of showing support for Israel and to state its right to defend her citizens from terrorist rocket attacks and to call for peace for all residents in the Gaza strip. The program included remarks from the federation’s director, David Shtulman, as well as prayers from local Rabbis and a video message directly from Israel. LON HORWEDEL,THE ANN ARBOR NEWS
