I write to you after some days of disconnection; war changes life and destroys the routine one is used to.

Spiritual and Emotional Support
for Those Hurt in the War

We are now dealing with the complex and painful rehabilitation which inevitably follows any war...  Funders may choose to fund: one session for 15-20 people ($2,555), several sessions (multiply $2,555 by the number of sessions to be funded), or even one single participant ($170).

Several Masorti (Conservative) rabbis from congregations in Israel have written of their feelings and experiences during these troubled days, and we share here some of these personal statements. Click here to view.
