Poway Rabbi Accepts White House Invitation To DC For National Day Of Prayer

Rabbi Yisroel Goldstein, who was wounded in the Shabbos shooting at Chabad of Poway  in California, accepted the White House’s invitation to Washington, D.C., for the National Day of Prayer.

Oscar Stewart, the combat veteran who confronted the shooter and forced him to flee, and Jonathan Morales, the off-duty border patrol agent who engaged the shooter as he fled from Stewart, will accompany Yisroel to D.C., where the three will take part in a ceremony.

Stewart could not provide any details about the ceremony, but said that it was an important opportunity to exhort people of faith to stand strong and unified in the face of evil, whether it manifests as anti-Semitism, or as attacks on churches, mosques, or any other places of worship.
