It is not comfortable for the OU to participate in entities like JCPA. We must make sure that we remain firm in our values and principles while engaging with those who not only disagree with us but who do not comprehend the worldview we bring to the discussion.
But the Orthodox Union is not content to remain within our comfortable communities and leave the rest of Jewry and the world to chance. The OU’s mission is to enhance Jewish life for those within our community and to promote the message of Torah Judaism to those beyond it. While the OU might not always succeed in every attempt at fulfilling this mission, we always make our maximal effort in service of Torah and our community.
