ambassador (mk) michael oren lectures in memory of ruth wildes

In honor of the 20th anniversary of the passing of Ruth Wildes, late wife of Wildes & Weinberg Senior Partner Leon Wildes,  and  mother of Managing Partner Michael Wildes, the community was invited to hear words of inspiration from  MK Michael Oren.  The event was held on November 14, 2015 at the Ramaz School and was sponsored by Manhattan Jewish Experience (MJE), a non-profit organization founded by Rabbi Mark N. Wildes in 1998. Rabbi Wildes is Leon Wildes’ son and Michael Wildes’ brother. 

MK Michael Oren is a current member of the Israeli Knesset, a Former Israeli Ambassador to the United States, a historian, and a best selling author of “Ally” and “Six Days of War”. More then 450 people attended the sold-out event and heard words of wisdom from MK Oren who also discussed the status of U.S. and Israeli relations: a past, present, and future outlook of the bond between the two countries.

MJE, the organization which sponsored the event, is a cutting edge program for young Jewish professionals in their 20’s and 30’s, with little or no background in Judaism who are interested in connecting more to each other, to their community, and to Judaism. MJE is a place where young men and women can explore Jewish life and meet new people in a wide range of inclusive, engaging and innovative programs for thousands of young Jewish professionals, including parties, an annual ski trip, classes, beginner prayer services, marching in the Israel day parade, Friday night dinners and much much more. MJE was founded in memory of Ruth B. Wildes z”l  For more information about MJE, click here: http://www.jewishexperience.org

Schacter, Rabbi Shlomo Riskin, Professor Alan Dershowitz, Rabbi Dr. Meir Y. Soloveichik, among many other notables.
