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. And many discovered the wonders of Israel for the very first time. We are proud to share that this was the largest Miami Mission to Israel in Federation’s history. Follow our journey on our Facebook page or on Israelat70MiamiMission.org.
