MEET SIMONE RIZKALLAH
by Kristen West McGuire
Simone Rizkallah is the Manager of Jewish-Christian Partnerships at Tikvah and a founding member of Catholics Against Antisemitism. A first-generation American of Egyptian-Armenian descent, she was raised in Southern California in the Armenian Catholic Church.
Simone lectures on a broad range of theological, spiritual, and cultural topics, including Jewish-Catholic relations, religious freedom, Christian identity, the feminine genius, and the enduring relevance of the Christian East. She recently organized Shoulder to Shoulder: Strengthening Jewish-Catholic Friendship at a Moment of Crisis, a conference at Benedictine College devoted to strengthening relations between Catholics and Jews. Catholics Against Antisemitism is an initiative committed to confronting antisemitism educationally, culturally, and spiritually by grounding its work in the rich moral and theological tradition of the Catholic Church. Tikvah advances Jewish excellence and Western civilization through education and ideas. Simone's work at Tikvah includes the Newport Fellowship, a Jewish-Christian partnership for the biblical renewal of America.

My Secret is Mine
Spirituality for Catholic Women
“Secretum meum mihi,” (“my secret is mine.”) was St. Edith's Stein's cryptic response when her best friend asked why she converted. We serve up interviews, historical sketches, Bible studies, book reviews and essays for Catholic women. MY SECRET IS MINE is for women with an audacious hope: that the Messiah makes all things new.
