This week was Israel’s Yom HaZikaron (Memorial Day) and Yom Ha’atzmaut (Independence Day). I’ve had the incredible opportunity to spend the week in Israel with over 300 members of our Greater Boston community as part of our historic Spark experience.
I wanted to share with you a special video message from Tel Aviv to Boston commemorating the miracle of Israel at 75. Explore resources to celebrate at home on JewishBoston.com.
