Join Rabbi Blake and Cantor Kleinman for a solidarity mission to Israel, as we show our support for our brothers and sisters in Israel. We will meet with both political leaders and those overseeing key social initiatives, connect with our sister communities in Israel, hear and bear witness to the stories of those affected by the current crisis, and provide meaningful hands-on volunteer support.
The trip will take place from March 17th – 22nd, 2024. You can find the trip itinerary, details, and registration links here. Please note that the registration deadline is February 15th and the trip is only open to WRT members.
The rabbinic sages of the Talmud write, “Kol Yisrael arevim zeh ba-zeh” – all of the people of Israel are responsible for one another. Our community’s mission to Israel will provide a powerful affirmation of our presence, our support, and our unwavering commitment to our Israeli family. Please join us.
