 Kesher

Established kesher (connection) with Israeli family whose eldest son Moshe was killed by a Palestinian suicide bomber in December 2002. CBI members visit during trips to Israel. We hosted their youngest son at our synagogue. A plaque was dedicated to Moshe in our synagogue. Gifts have been sent to the family on Jewish holidays. A Ring of Trees from JNF was purchased in Moshe’s honor. We contributed to the creation of a children’s park in Gilo dedicated in Moshe’s memory.
