Just over 30 years ago, retired lawyer Andrew Sholl met the late Fr Elias Friedman OCD at the Stella Maris Carmelite Monastery on Mount Carmel, in Haifa, Israel. Within two years of their meeting, Mr Sholl and Fr Elias established the Association of Hebrew Catholics to enable Catholics who are of Jewish origin or background to openly live out their Israelite identity while being faithful Catholics.

The association’s headquarters are in St Louis, in the US, but Mr Sholl remains secretary of the association and looks after the Australian membership.

If you are a Hebrew Catholic and wish to know more about the association, please write to Andrew Sholl, Association of Hebrew Catholics, 5 Mirabel Avenue, Arcadia, Queensland, 4819.
