Let’s Go To Israel
On the evening of August 6th a group of members gathered
to plan a congregational trip to Israel. For some this would be their first
visit to Israel; for others it would be a homecoming of sorts. Still be it a
first time or just one more after many there was a tangible sense of
excitement. Israel is an exciting place to visit yet at the same time there is
a strong sense of “being at home.”
During our planning discussion some basic concepts were
agreed upon. They were:
Winter Break of
2015 (over school vacation in 2015) would be a good time to travel.
Our trip should be a minimum of 10 days (this
would include travel days).
Three star hotels
would be sufficient.
During our trip it
would be good to have opportunities to meet with local people.
Having
agreed upon these basic concepts it would now be my task to contact experienced
and respected travel agencies to determine availability and price.December
2015 gives us ample opportunity to consider well all our options.
If
you were unable to attend our planning meeting on August 6th and are interested in participating
please contact me. We are only beginning the process and there is ample room!
In the coming months I’ll be posting more information about this exciting
venture.
Wishing
you all good things, Rabbi
