"Pulpit exchanges have worked
very well, but our goal this year is to
bring it into people's homes," said
Rabbi Moskowitz.
Last Passover, West Bloomfield's
Temple Israel joined with the
Detroit-based Third New Hope
Baptist Church for a joint Freedom
Seder and hosted church members in
outdoor Shabbat services.
"Hopefully, this will become a
lasting relationship between two
organizations that share values,
though not beliefs," said Temple
Israel's Rabbi Joshua Bennett.
Among other synagogue-black
church partnerships are Troy's
Congregation Shir Tikvah and
Plymouth United Church, and Oak
Park's Temple Emanu-El and Bethel
AME Church.
Congregation Beth Shalom in Oak
Park has worked with several area
churches to organize and present
NCCJ programs on violence and
racial profiling. In addition, Beth
Shalom Rabbi David Nelson, the
only Jewish member of the Detroit
Police Chaplaincy Corps, has "work-
ing relationships of respect and trust
with a lot of black clergy."
"I prize them as friends and indi-
viduals," he said. "But sometimes
they have trouble understanding
Jewish sensitivities."
For example, he said, there's no
way he will say "amen" to being
blessed in the name of Jesus.
Rabbi Nelson, who has worked
with the chaplaincy corps for 15
years, said building personal rela-
tionships doesn't happen overnight.
"If they [religious leaders] want one-
to-one contact, they're really going
to have to struggle to get people to
socialize," he predicted.
