The Torah and our traditions have many things to say about our responsibility to prevent the suffering of animals.
Shamayim: Jewish Animal Advocacy announced our first ever Animal Welfare Sermon Contest in August. This was a two month long opportunity to compose and deliver a sermon focused on our responsibilities to animals through the lens of Jewish tradition and ethics.
Our submission period closed on October 31st. We are very excited to announce our winners and to share the amazing submissions below.
We hope you will read all of the submissions below. Choosing the winners was very difficult due to the amazing submissions we received.
