Joan Sable, 91 years old, came for an emotional visit to Israel and to the Kotel on a 14-hour flight from California after many long years of not being here. Her son, David, made aliyah two and a half years ago. She is very proud of Israel, loves the country, and the visit to the Kotel was an incredibly moving experience.

In our difficult hour, we not only turn our eyes upward, but to one another, strengthening one another, embracing one another, sending strength and prayers and hope to those who need them most.
