Hundreds of 4th and 5th graders from Carmiel, along with their parents, visited Jerusalem as part of the Connecting to the Chain program. The pupils took an experiential tour which focused on connection to the chain of generations. They visited the sites of the Old City of Jerusalem and the Western Wall, and through these historic sites, they encountered the Jewish chain of generations which they joined as its newest links.

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.
