Dear Miami Beach JCC Members,

Given the current situation in Israel, we understand the concern and worry that may arise. Our thoughts and prayers go out for the safety and security of our brothers and sisters in Israel. We deeply condemn this act of war and stand in solidarity with those affected by the escalating conflict.

In light of these events, please know that we have taken proactive steps to enhance the safety and security of our community here at the MBJCC. This includes outreach to the Miami Beach Police Department, our dedicated private security team, the JCC Association, and resources from the Greater Miami Jewish Federation’s Security Office.

All parties responded promptly and have committed to being on the highest alert to provide an extra layer of “safety watch” over our MBJCC and the broader Jewish community. It is important to emphasize that no direct threats to our local community have been made. Nonetheless, we believe in staying proactive and vigilant, ensuring the safety of our members and guests.

Additionally, please join us tomorrow at 6 p.m. for the Israel Solidarity Rally at the Holocaust Memorial as we stand together with Israel and stand strong against terrorism.

Am Yisrael Chai!
