We believe we have planned a program that will be meaningful to all of our members. Enjoy extended time for dinners to catch up with friends. Meet with class members. Experience Israel with friends, colleagues and teachers. Participate in cultural events, meaningful dialogues and the largest pluralistic Beit Midrash ever convened.
