Saved by a Miracle: A Sacred Earth Judaism Presentation

Hosted By: Lake Erie Institute / Sacred Earth Judaism

Spiritual speaker and counselor, Rabbi Hirshel Jaffe is known as the Marathon Rabbi and author of the book Why Me? Why Anyone? 

Rabbi Jaffe became world renown in 1980 when he visited and offered comfort to the 52 Americans being held in Iran during the hostage crisis. Later, when the hostages were freed, he was there to greet them in a White House ceremony. He is a five-time cancer survivor and a marathon runner. He says he was “saved by a miracle.”  He invites you to watch the video Hanging on to Hope, which is a moving presentation on how to find hope and courage when faced with illness and adversity, prior to the discussion.
