After Shabbat Morning Services
- announcing Trey's Traybakes!
Take home a delicious treat baked by Trey Rintala in our own back kitchen! Trey is the former sous chef and pastry chef of Meauxbar. After he lost the restaurant due to the pandemic, he focused his energy on feeding those needing help by establishing Tres Bon Food Fund, a nonprofit that allowed him to prepare meals for unemployed musicians and service industry workers. He now runs Happy Breakfast Trey, a popup that allows him to engage his more whimsical creative side.

A Powerful and Inspiring Video by Rabbi Yoav Ende, Executive Director of the Hannaton Educational Center |
|
At a time of challenge and suffering in Israel, the Masorti Foundation brings you one of the most meaningful voices of Masorti Israel. It's a part of our effort to share the variety of views and perspectives of leading thinkers and activists from the Movement.
In this exceptional, moving first-hand account, Rabbi Ende shares a vision of what kind of society he hopes to build in Israel. With humanity and heart, he reaches out to the Arab communities surrounding Hannaton.
As he said in a speech at joint gathering of Jews and Arabs in the village of Kfar Manra: "I am looking forward to a future where we work together, a shared life based on respect, truth, and acceptance. I believe in this path, the path of peace, and I know most people are willing to walk this path with me."
