Members of our congregation have returned from an amazing and life changing trip to Israel, want to share this video, capturing a powerful moment on the trip. In our 2 week journey through Israel, one of the many highlights was a private performance by this incredible dance ensemble, who have won international acclaim and awards including a performance in the White House. Watching a deaf dancer fill the performance space, was both a moving performance and helped us to understand Israel’s commitment to supporting individuals with challenges.  Enjoy the video!
