Shalom friends,
Rosh Hashanah, the beginning of the Jewish year is almost here. Rosh Hashanah is a time for joy, celebration, food and family. It is also a time for introspection, consideration of the year completed and the year to come, our Jewish identity and how we are connected to our people and the Jewish homeland – Israel.
We hope all of Am Yisrael, around the world, will have a good and fruitful year ahead.
May you be happy and healthy, safe from harm, enriched by the legacy we all belong to and empowered with knowledge of all the wonderful ways Judaism and Israel are making the world a better place.
We are proud to be a part of your Israel connection. Every time you take part in our activities, share information and contribute you are making a difference and helping build Israel Forever. For this we thank YOU! We are stronger, together.
Shana tova!
