AJC recently received a Cutting Edge grant from the Jewish Community Foundation of Los Angeles for three years to fund the 'Essence of Judaism' program that brings in Spanish speaking scholars from around North America to teach Latino Pastors about Judaism. This announcement follows on the heels of the groundbreaking trip to Israel of a group of national Latino religious leaders. AJC, through its Project Interchange Program, traveled to Israel with 11 Latino pastors from across the United States on a 10-day tour of Israeli political, social and spiritual life, from Jerusalem to Tel Aviv, Sderot to the West Bank.
