Selichot presents an opportunity for reflection and preparation as
we enter the High Holy Days period. This year, we will commence
Selichot with a film screening
‘Tackling Peace', narrated by
Hugo Weaving, is the inspirational
story of Israeli and Palestinian
youths who unite over the game
of Australian football. The fi lm
features legendary footballers
Kevin Sheehan, Ron Barassi and
Robert ‘Dipper' DiPierdomenico.
It had its premier at the opening
night of this year's AICE Australian
Film Festival in Jerusalem.
The Peace Team is an initiative of
the not-for-profi t Peres Centre
for Peace, which works towards
peace in the middle east.
Join us on Saturday 12 September at 9 pm for the screening and
discussion will be followed by our annual Selichot service, a moving
introduction to the themes and music of the High Holydays.
