Miami Mega Mission Reaches 700 Participants!
Miami Mega Mission 2012 now has 700 confirmed participants, making it the largest Jewish community mission to Israel in more than a decade. The journey will take place April 22-May 1.
“The outpouring of interest and support for this trip has been overwhelming,” said Mega Mission Chair Saby Behar. “People understand that by participating in this trip, they are doing something meaningful, historic and life-changing.”
Together, Mission-goers will explore ancient and modern life in Israel; interact with high-ranking Israeli military officials, public-opinion-shapers and policy-makers; participate in volunteer activities with Miami’s partnership cities; and share Yom Hazikaron (Israel’s Memorial Day) and Yom Ha’atmaut (Israel’s Independence Day) with the people of Israel.
They will be able to spend a day pursuing their own interests, including art, food and wine, historic Israel, and many more options; and enjoy fantastic evenings of celebration featuring top Israeli entertainers and incredible Israeli food during the Mission’s Mega Events.
“When we bring 700 people to be with the Israeli people during these momentous holidays, we show the world that we, as an entire community, stand strong with Israel,” said Barbara Black Goldfarb, Federation Chair of the Board. “We’re not only sharing a wonderful trip together – we’re making a powerful statement to the world.”
