Israel Through Interfaith Eyes

January 27, 2025 - Jewish Federation of Greater MetroWest's Interfaith Clergy Mission lands at Ben Gurion Airport and begins an intense 3 day exploration of Ancient and Modern Jerusalem, the events of October 7, 2023, and the shared Judai0-Christian legacy in the Land of Israel.



I am honored to be leading a tremendous three day interfaith mission of clergy colleagues as part of my volunteer work with the Jewish Federation of Greater MetroWest.  As I settle into my seat on the plane, I am hopeful that the current calming of the conflicts in Gaza and Lebanon while continue, that all of our histages will come home and that this mission will be an ongoing inspiration for both a shared society and a more peaceful future.  

Through shared experiences, faithful curiosity, and open minds we will step forward to see and hear what God needs us to see and hear.

Hineinu - may we all be fully present in these days and hours together.

Rabbi Robert Tobin


And none of this would have been possible without to complete support, sponsorship and advocacy of the Jewish Federation of Greater MetroWest, who funded, designed and led this remarkable experience.
