Dearest All,
As our senses are heightened and we are anxiously aware of Iran and its proxy’s threats, we are all looking to channel our anxiety.
Jewish wisdom teaches us that doing good is always the solution.
So here is an opportunity ~ Our dear dear Julie Landau Silverman’s brother in law’s brigade has a need we can help fill. May the charity you generously give stand as a much needed merit and protection for the Jewish people 💙💙
Note from Julie's brother in law...
“We are reaching out to you again on behalf of our brave soldiers who are stationed in Gaza. The young soldiers who are putting their lives on the line need our help. The particular need this time is for tripod cameras which will help this reconnaissance unit in the field. This equipment will literally save lives as it serves as the “eyes” of the unit and provides in the moment information of danger ahead. The tripods and cameras will serve a company of 120 soldiers and will enable them to guard the space they are working without being exposed to terrorists. They are guarding to prevent civilians and military from surprise attacks."
If you are able to participate in this effort please click the link below and specify Brigade 205 in the memo section.

When you have time to participate, you just write in the chat the number of the next psalm(s) you want to say. You can look the #’s up on Google- Chabad.org immediately pops up with it— and recite it. The psalms go from 1-150.

- We need to pick up the pace calling our representatives and expressing our support for Israel: The volume of calls for a ceasefire coming into their offices are in the thousands compared to just over 100 to support aid for Israel. If you use the oneminaday.com website, you can enter your zip code, figure out who to call and then mention both your support for Israel as well as your desire to get the hostages back.
