IDF Shabbat at Mayanot – A Truly Unforgettable Experience



This past Shabbat, we had the incredible honor of hosting 50 paratroopers from the IDF at the Mayanot World Center! Together with our students, they prayed, shared meals, and danced in true Shabbat spirit. The energy was palpable as our students and these heroic soldiers learned from each other, creating meaningful connections and lifelong memories.

The impact was profound—on both the soldiers and our students—as they bonded over shared values, Jewish identity, and stories of resilience and faith.

We can’t wait to welcome more of Israel’s brave soldiers to our home in Jerusalem and continue these inspiring encounters. 💙
