Mumbai Memorial Tribute<br />

Last year, the world stood together in shock and sadness at the brutal<br />

loss of life in Mumbai, India. One year later, <strong>The</strong> <strong>Shul</strong> participated in a<br />

global gathering of hope, healing, and renewal to mark the<br />

anniversary of this terrible tragedy and the loss of our fellow<br />

Shluchim, Rabbi Gabi and Rivkah Holtzberg.<br />

<strong>The</strong> program included special greetings from Chief<br />

Rabbi Yona Metzger, Chief Rabbi Shlomo Amar, Prime<br />

Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and Professor Eli<br />

Wiesel. <strong>The</strong> 60-minute 60 minute memorial broadcast also<br />

included heart rendering videos clips of the Shluchim<br />

in Mumbai and stories of people - whose lives they<br />

touched.<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Shul</strong> kids also participated in their very own<br />

tribute rally, with a unique video on Israel, the<br />

chanting of 12 Torah Pesukim and a grand raffle.<br />

Thank you to all those that assisted in making this<br />

event possible!<br />
