Years of struggle, court cases, op-ed essays, intense lobbying, sermons delivered in countries around the world, pressure from communities outside of Israel and, most of all, the intense efforts of our Israel Religious Action Center have brought us to this historic plateau.     Mazel Tov to Rabbi Gold and to all who have made it possible!   May we go from strength to ever greater strength until all legitimate expressions of Jewish religious practice enjoy full equality in the Jewish State.      Rabbi Stephen Lewis Fuchs President  World Union for Progressive Judaism   _____________________________________________   Sincerely,   World Union for Progressive Judaism
