CCJ Vic conversations – February 2025

20 February 2025

Council of Christians and Jews (Victoria) co-chair Alex Kats speaks with Rabbi David Fox Sandmel, President of the International Council of Christians and Jews (ICCJ), and Sr Kasia Kowalska NDS, First Vice-President of the ICCJ.

 

They were in Australia for “Heads, Hearts & Hands: What can dialogue do for us?”, a gathering of people interested in or engaged with Jewish-Christian dialogue as well as various state-based organisations and the board of the ICCJ. The gathering was held at Trinity Theological College in Parkville and Temple Beth Israel in St Kilda, and attracted nearly 90 attendees over the three days. 

In the interview, David and Kasia share insights into their backgrounds, their roles in the ICCJ, what they learnt about the unique qualities of interfaith relations in the Australian context, and how this might inform their work.
