Sarri Singer

We are honoured to have Sarri Singer talk to the Zionist Federation of New Zealand direct from New Jersey.

Join us at 6pm on Sunday 7 March on Zoom (details below) to hear Sarri talk about her first hand experience of Palestinian terrorism and how from this she has set up the organisation Strength to Strength.

This will be a fascinating and no doubt emotional talk as Sarri recalls what happened as she boarded bus number 14 in Jerusalem.

Sarri Singer, born in Lakewood, New Jersey, is the daughter of New Jersey State Senator, Robert Singer. Until 9/11, Sarri worked a few blocks away from the World Trade Center. Deeply moved by the tragedy of 9/11, Sarri decided to resign from her position in December 2001 and move to Israel to help victims of terror. While there, Sarri volunteered with various organisations working with victims of terror.

On June 11, 2003, Sarri was on Bus 14 in Jerusalem when an 18-year-old Palestinian terrorist dressed as a religious Jew boarded and blew himself up. 16 people were killed, including all those seated and standing around her, and over 100 people were injured. Sarri was hospitalized for two weeks and then returned to New Jersey to be with family. Her story became high profile. She appeared on television stations such as CBS, FoxNews, CNN and radio interviews. She spoke before Congressmen and Senators in Washington, D.C. and politicians in New York and New Jersey. In September 2003 she returned to work and volunteering in Israel. In June 2004, she returned to the United States to take care of ongoing medical issues associated with her attack.

Sarri is the Founder and Director of Strength to Strength (www.stosglobal.org), which focuses on bringing together victims of terrorism together from around the world and assisting with long term psychological needs. Sarri has addressed audiences throughout the United States, Canada, Europe, South America, and Israel and continues to share her unique insight into the ongoing struggle for victims of terror in Israel and around the world.

There will be a presentation of a petition, urging our government to declare all wings of Hamas to be terrorist organisations.

Note the change of time, as Parliament Staff will only let us use a sound system at certain times this Thursday, so we’ve accordingly adjusted the start time of our event.

Please gather at the new time of 12.30pm at Parliament Grounds.

Please bring your Israel & NZ Flags and any placards in support of Israel!

Disclaimer:

Under the circumstances, Israel needs all the supporters it can get.

For this reason, we have agreed to circulate notices of pro-Israel events around the country whether they were organized by NZFOI or not.

Naturally, Israel supporters can come from quite diverse schools of thought so in sending this notice to you, it doesn’t mean we endorse everything someone else says or does.

In all things, graciousness and kindness go a long way.

See the latest notice from AKL’s Israel Focus Group.

Standing together to stand with Israel

We will be joined by Bryce Turner, National Director of CFI.

Bryce led a team to Israel after October 7 to

1. Show support to beleaguered Israelis
2. Help out wherever they could as they took tradespersons along
3. Record and bring back survivors’ stories.

Bryce has been a sought-after public speaker since his return.

ABOUT C4I

Christians for Israel (C4I) is a non-denominational movement. We believe that God is still faithful to all His covenants with, and promises to the nation of Israel.

LATER IN THE MEETING

We will be discussing:

1. Latest developments in Israel.
2. Anti-Semitism in New Zealand.
3. The Refugee Issue and the roles of UNRWA and UNHCR.
4. More ideas about what you can do to support Israel.

There’s also a chance to return and find more books from our library.
