Shabbat at Kibbutz Yechiam #JustJewIt #Bus1497

By: Dana Cohen

Tonight we experienced our first Shabbat as a group. The evening consisted of lighting the Shabbas candles, a Reform synagogue service, ultimately leading to a delicious Shabbat dinner. As we lit the candles, everyone had a chance to light them and reflect on the week. My favorite part about Shabbat was the sense of community I experienced while praying in our holy land. After a long few days of traveling and exploring Israel, Shabbat was a great way for the group to come together and look forward to the new week approaching.
