Chabad Richmond is leading a trip to Israel called The Land & the Spirit Israel Experience. People from across the Lower Mainland are invited to participate in this educational journey to Israel and Judaism\u2019s most holy and historical sites.<\/p>\n

March 4-13, 2018, participants will be taken on a five-star experience that feeds their heart, mind and soul, creating lifelong and life-changing memories. \u201cThis is an opportunity to see Israel as never before. This trip includes many unique features you will not find on any other trip of its kind,\u201d said Rabbi Yechiel Baitelman, director of Chabad Richmond.<\/p>\n

Sponsored by the Jewish Learning Institute, the trip includes:<\/p>\n

Journey of learning<\/strong>: Explore Israel\u2019s soul. The Jewish Learning Institute will bring Judaism\u2019s rich history to life as travelers discover the origins of our nation and the spiritual secrets of Israel\u2019s holy sites.<\/p>\n

Israel today<\/strong>: Hear from chief rabbis, military brass and top political leaders. The group will be addressed by Israel\u2019s leaders and gain an insider\u2019s view of modern-day Israel\u2019s challenges and triumphs.<\/p>\n

Mission of solidarity<\/strong>: Head to the frontlines of Israel\u2019s fight for survival. The trip is highlighted by a visit to the beleaguered community of Hebron, and an intimate barbecue with Israel Defence Forces soldiers and officers, where participants will be able to express their support to our brothers and sisters.<\/p>\n

Travel in luxury<\/strong>: There will be concierge service from the moment you arrive, first-class hotel accommodations, five-star gourmet meals, and the very best Israel has to offer in education and entertainment.<\/p>\n

Registration for the 2018 trip is well ahead of the pace of recent trips, so interested community members are encouraged to register soon. \u201cThis is not a fundraising trip,\u201d emphasized Baitelman, \u201cand no solicitation will be done on this trip.\u201d<\/p>\n
