ISRAEL MISSION | REUNION: A NIGHT OF STORIES, SPIRIT & SOLIDARITY

Earlier this year, a group of young professionals from our community embarked on a powerful journey to Israel.

What began as a packed itinerary of volunteering and sightseeing became something no one could’ve predicted — a front-row experience to history, unity, and resilience.

Join us for a powerful reunion and community evening as attendees of our recent Israel trip share their first-hand experiences from the ground during the 12-day war that erupted with Iran.
