I am writing to you from Yerushalayim, 2 days into our Mission to Israel with families from our community. We're having a great time touring and truly experiencing Israel! In just these two days we managed to visit the Kotel and Western Wall Tunnels, Ya'ad Vashem, Me'ah Shearim and a very special, meaningful trip to the holy city of Chevron and Kever Rochel! Tonight, numerous guests - friends and relatives of our participants - will join us for our Shabbat Dinner. Everyone is having a truly uplifting and enjoyable experience, being inspired by those who reside in Israel and inspiring them at the same time, by our solidarity. Stay tuned - we'll post photos just as soon as we return!
Best wishes for a Shabbat Shalom and a Good Chodesh,
Rabbi Zalman Wolowik
