EP 12: Margalit Friedman: Beauty For Ashes

Margalit was raised in Minnesota and Ohio. She earned her BA in Middle Eastern Studies, splitting her education between the States and Jerusalem. In 1978, she met and married the man of her dreams – David Friedman – a nice Jewish boy from Duluth, MN. They both had the same dream of moving to Israel to live and share the truth about the true Messiah of Israel. They immigrated in 1980. In 1982, their twin boys Shuki and Beni were born.

They founded two local congregations in Jerusalem where Margalit sang in the New Israeli Opera, also working in a Minneapolis based Children’s Theatre, performing productions like The Chronicles of Narnia and Godspell. Much of their ministry was focused on reconciliation between Jewish People with Arabs, Germans, and Polish people groups.

While David was both a professor and the Academic Dean of Israel College of the Bible, they made it a practice to invite students from abroad to spend Shabbats in their home each weekend. They traveled the world teaching the Jewish background of the Scriptures and the importance of carrying the heart of the Father for the Jewish people. They founded a Torah/Bible school in Jerusalem in addition to another congregation that moved online during the Covid pandemic. To this day, people from the nations continue to join every Shabbat morning.

In 2021, her husband, Dr. Rabbi David Friedman, went home to be with the Lord on Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Years Day and Biblical Feast of Trumpets. Today Margalit serves as part of the leadership team of the Darchei Noam congregation and regularly leads a group of widows. She continues to meet with Jewish and Arab leaders from the Jerusalem area on a regular basis to encourage and pray for one another.

Margalit is a proud grandmother of seven.
