It was an honor to hear Dr. Sheikh Khalid bin Khalifa al-Khalifa deliver the keynote address at our #Purim celebration. As His Excellency reminds us, it is "high time" for Jews from around the #Gulf to unite.

Today we celebrate the Jewish holiday #Purim, which commemorates the saving of the Jewish people, some 2500 years ago. It is a day of festivals and joy, but also a day of reflection on past and future.
So bear with me today in this festive-reflective twitter thread

Met today with Cardinal Andrew Yeom Soo-jung, the leader of the Catholic Church in Korea.
Tonight is Purim so I showed him my Scroll of Esther which worked perfectly since today's Church reading is Esther Chapter 4.

HAPPY PURIM! The Festival of Purim commemorates the Jews’ victory over the Persian tyrant, Haman, who schemed to kill all the Jews in a single day. Queen Esther exposed Haman’s plot and he was hanged (long story). We celebrate Purim with a masquerade party, lots of food & drinks! https://t.co/rVqvqxoCTI
