Happy Yom Ha'atzmaut. On an El-Al Flight in November of 2016 Danny and I were traveling to Israel for our Sheva Brachot. Word spread quickly that there was a newly married couple on the airplane and in no time we were taken to the back of the plane. Wine was provided by the flight attendant and we were accompanied by 20 other passengers in celebrating our second official sheva brachot over the Atlantic Ocean. The next day at the kotel a woman ran up to us saying, "you're that newly married couple who had their sheva brachot on the airplane, I was there!" That was the only time I have ever felt like a celebrity. #ThereisnothinglikeIsrael. What is your Israel memory? Fondest Israel moment? Don't forget to share it with someone today!
In Health,
Hallie Chandler, Director of Community Engagement.
In commemoration of Yom Ha'aztmaut today we encourage you to listen to this week's musical offering, Hora by Marc Lavry. This track can be found here.
