Dr. Samuel Goldenson, rabbi of Temple Emanu-El, New York City, and president of the Central Conference of American Rabbis, will speak at Congregation B’nai Jeshurun here this Friday evening in connection with the annual Union Tour sponsored by the Union of American Hebrew Congregations. This year’s topic is “The Necessity for Religious Recovery.”
Dr. Goldenson is one of a group of 250 of the most distinguished lay and rabbinical leaders who are to conduct similar meetings within the next few weeks. Rabbi Solomon Foster and Jacob L. Newman, rabbi and president of Congregation B’nai Jeshurun, will also take part in the program.
These meetings are arranged with the objective of obtaining for the Union a well knit and friendly constituency, and also to create interest in behalf of their national religious institutions, such as the Hebrew Union College, and the Department of Synagogue and Social Extension.
