An Inspiring Evening with Douglas Murray and Gadi Moses

Posted on by

HoCoJAG President Trevor Greene joined Howard County Jewish leaders at Beth Tfiloh for a deeply moving event with righteous gentile Douglas Murray and former hostage Gadi Moses.

Murray inspired us with his words, reminding the audience that where Hamas is a “death cult,” the Jewish people are a “life cult,” committed to showing the world that we celebrate life, building, growth, and positivity.

Moses expressed heartfelt gratitude for our support in rebuilding Kibbutz Nir Oz, where more than a quarter of residents were murdered or taken captive. He explained that Nir Oz is his dream, and as long as he focuses on that dream, “the haters of the world will never win.”

The evening reached its most powerful moment when Gadi joined the 1,500 attendees in a Mi Sheberach (prayer for healing) for the 48 hostages still held by Hamas.

HCPSS Commits to Major Steps on Antisemitism

Posted on by

We’re thrilled to share that HCPSS has agreed to take MAJOR steps to address antisemitism in our schools—and it’s everything we asked for:

  • Official adoption of the IHRA Working Definition of Antisemitism
  • A defined process to investigate complaints and identify antisemitism
  • Partnering with AJC to support implementation, guidance, and professional development

These are tangible, systemic changes that will make a real difference for Jewish students and staff.

We’re proud that HoCoJAG and JPC’s advocacy was instrumental in making this happen. This win is the result of focused, persistent work by our community.  

Let’s take a moment to celebrate—this is how change happens.
