Join the Federation for a focused journey to Israel during a pivotal time. This mission offers a unique opportunity to engage with Israeli society, government, and civil leadership, while exploring the evolving relationship between Israel and the Diaspora.
On this Shabbat, we hope you will reach out if you need support and join us in gratitude for the food on your table while also fulfilling the Jewish imperative to feed the hungry.
The last two weeks have been a mix of joy, relief, and a tentative hope for lasting stability after two years of war in Israel and Gaza. Like many of you, I am holding on to hope for a continued ceasefire, the end of the war, and the beginning of a new era of peace and stability for both Israeli and Palestinian people.
Together, with hope, we can make the year ahead a sweet one.
