Lazo, one of Kulanus representatives for Mexican Affairs.
After Guillermo Lazo became aware of his Crypto-Judaic ancestry,
he studied at the Denver Institute for Judaic Studies. In 2000,
he received his certificate of GER at Tikvat Israel Congregation
in Rockville, MD. In addition to his personal journey to Judaism,
Mr. Lazo will tell us about anusim communities in Mexico, their
locations, and the many problems facing these groups of people.
Read Mr. Lazo's article in HaLapid "Confessions
of a Marrano"
On Thursday, February 19, 2004, Guillermo Lazo sent an email
to Barbara Rosenblum about his time in Tucson with Kulanu SW.
Subject: [Kulanu_Mexico] Tucson!
I would like to say that the Kulanu Tucson chapter is a wonderfully
receptive and active chapter of Kulanu. The Friday night service
at Temple Emanu-EL was novel and exciting.
I thought the talk was a little dry in the beginning, but I
wanted to give a broad introduction for the group. The questions
afterward were stimulating and thought provoking. I want to
thank Barbara Rosenbloom and Norman Ross for organizing a great
visit for us.
I have a feeling that great things will come from Tucson...
Guillermo
