Private archive footage of the induction of Rabbi Pinchas Shebson (Szevszynski) and his wife Sarah Shebson (nee Viner). Southend's Jewish community was fortunate to have very distinguished and much loved religious leaders such as Rabbi Shebson and Reverend (Chazan) Aryeh Garbacz as shown in this footage. This film features the Chief Rabbi at the time Immanuel Jakobovits, and the then Mayor of Southend and other dignitaries outside the synagogue.
Reverend Garbacz served the Southend and Westcliff Hebrew Congregation and (along with Rabbi Shebson) helped build strong community relations from 1930 and for a period of almost 53 years.
Video features British Jewish community ministers Rabbi Pinchos Shebson/Pinchas Shebson and Chazan Aryeh Garbacz. Southend was a key place on the map of Anglo Jewry after WWII and these charismatic leaders and the local community built three synagogues in the town for orthodox and liberal or reform congregants.
