The Women of the Wall group will be marking its 30th anniversary when it convenes its monthly  prayer service at the Western Wall in Jerusalem this coming Friday morning. The Jewish feminist group, which for three decades has advocated for equal rights in women's public prayer, says that the convergence of the Rosh Hodesh Adar II prayer service with the organization's anniversary, as well as International Women's Day on March 8th, is a perfect articulation of the group's resilience and activism. KAN's Naomi Segal asked Women of the Wall chairperson Anat Hoffman what she sees as the group's significant achievements and challenges.
