Out of an abundance of care and responsibility for our community, Congregation Ahavat Olam has made the thoughtful decision to postpone our congregational trip to Israel to 2027.
We remain deeply committed to this journey and to experiencing Israel together as a community. As the situation evolves and feels more settled, we will share updated dates and details.
Next year in Jerusalem — perhaps this will be the year you’ll consider joining us.
We are grateful for your continued interest, patience, and support, and we look forward to making this meaningful journey together when the time is right.
