The Israel Engagement Committee and Israel Emissary Shahaf Feinkuchen invite you to “Israel’s Yoms: Remembrances and Celebrations.” Three special events are planned including a Yom HaZikaron (Israeli Memorial Day) ceremony and dinner on Monday, May 13; A Taste of Israel: Wine and Food Tasting Dinner for 21+ on Thursday, May 16; and our annual family fun event entitled “Israel Shalom Fest” for Yom Ha’Atzmaut (Israel Independence Day). View below for more details on each of our Israeli National Days.
Please join us at the flag pole outside the CSJCC for a short ceremony remembering soldiers and civilians who lost their lives during the struggle to defend the State of Israel—as well as remembering the victims of terror attacks. This year many more soldiers died while defending Israel from terror, and many families joined the circle of Israeli bereaved families. Join us in remembering them and their stories.
