Pursuer of Peace Award - 6/2710
With the presentation of the first Pursuer of Peace Award, Rodef Shalom Congregation recognized Bishop David A. Zubik for his efforts to bring about understanding and healing. Nearly 700 guests gathered for a tribute dinner, during which the Bishop spoke at Pittsburgh’s oldest and largest Jewish house of worship. The award is named after Rodef Shalom, which is Hebrew for “pursuer of peace.” At the Bishop’s request, proceeds from the night will go toward helping immigrants and refugees in the area, continuing the Jewish and Catholic communities’ commitment to interfaith dialogue, and supporting the high ideals of Rodef Shalom Congregation.
