Many of you know that Cantor Arik led a mission to Israel with members of the Beth Jacob community in February. It was an intense trip filled with many different and difficult emotions, including sadness, hope and inspiration.  A video is being put together with the folks who participated in the mission, and this video will be made available to the community for wider distribution to both share the experiences and to encourage others to both visit Israel and engage in supporting Israel during this extended time of need. 

In the meantime, one of the mission attendees, Marc Kirshbaum, put together a presentation of photos and stories from the trip that he has presented via Zoom to his friends and family. Marc has two upcoming dates scheduled to share the presentation again via Zoom, and he has invited the BJ community to attend.
