ABOUT THE MEETINGS' LEADERS:

JoAnn G. Magnuson
Jewish-Christian Relations Consultant
CUFI City Director for Lakeville, MN
JoAnn Magnuson has been involved in Jewish-Christian relations for over 30 years. She has studied with Holocaust educators at Yad Vashem in Jerusalem and has written materials on the history of antisemitism and the importance of Holocaust education. She has led over sixty tours to Israel since 1977 and in recent years has headed the U.S. Protestant delegations to March of the Living in Poland.

JoAnn is committed to helping Christians learn about the land of Israel and to developing a connection with the biblical roots of their own faith. She is currently working with other Christians in the Twin Cities area to create a Jewish-Christian study center where information on the history, geography and human background of the Bible, as well as the facts about antisemitism and the Holocaust, can be made accessible to Christian audiences.

JoAnn speaks on a variety of topics, including the history of Jewish-Christian Relations and the current state of antisemitism in the world.
