Leaders Network condemns hate-filled antisemitic attacks

The Leaders Network condemns the hate-filled antisemitic attacks - most recently the desecration of gravestones in Waukegan, Illinois earlier this week - and all of the hatred across the country directed against our Jewish friends and neighbors.  At our most recent meeting of the Leaders Network, Pastor Marshall Hatch spoke for all of us when he delivered a statement condemning antisemitism on behalf of Northern Seminary (where he is teaching future faith leaders).

Northern Seminary condemns the anti-Semitic rhetoric in Jacksonville, Florida, this weekend and the behavior that incites violence against Jews. We pray for our Jewish friends and neighbors and call on all people to turn from violence and perform deeds of mercy, love, and justice. We call on Christians and churches to be God’s agents of love, reconciliation, and peace.

The Leaders Network is proud to stand with Northern Seminary and all who stand against hatred directed toward any group within our community.
