Friends:

In the coming days and weeks, Israel needs the solidarity and support of Jewish communities everywhere. The first thing we can all do is show up. Show up at the gathering at BT tonight, and please show up this Shabbat. Just like we did after the terrorism at the Tree of Life Synagogue, let's all show up and announce that we stand with Israel and we stand proud as the American Jewish community. Continue to show up as we care for one another and our brothers and sisters in Israel.  

We come together to pray, hold one another,

and unite as a community in the face of this sorrow.

SUPPORT:

The state of Israel needs our support. There are many ways to do this. In the body of the email are suggestions to places where you can donate money. In addition, while so many reservists have been called up, there will be additional ways that Americans can help with ongoing Israeli society. Pay attention to public pleas for help, and look out for additional information from us in the future. As this war continues to rage, our help and support will be needed in different ways.

My Personal Favorite: Grill for Israel. Sponsor a BBQ for Israeli soldiers on their base.

אחינו כל בית ישראל הנתונים בצרה ובשביה…המקום ירחם עליהם ויוציאם מצרה לרוחה ומאפילה לאורה…

“Our family, all of Israel, mired in sorrow and captivity…

May the Omnipresent have mercy on them and bring them from confinement and darkness into open spaces and light…”
