A Message From the Israel 70 Mission Chairs

It has been an incredible week celebrating Israel’s 70th birthday with 825 Miamians in the country we all consider our spiritual home. Young leaders experienced this special anniversary side by side with Holocaust survivors. Long-time community leaders reunited to help us honor this historic journey.
