SUMMARY:Yom Ha'atzmaut Shabbat Morning Service
DESCRIPTION:In honor of Yom Ha’atzmaut – Israel Independence Day\nJoin us for this special Shabbat Morning service\, as we hear from Z and Y\, a bride and groom whose wedding and newlywed year were interrupted by war. They are coming to tell their story on the Shabbat before Yom HaZikaron and Yom Ha’atzmaut. Like every IDF soldier and their family\, they showed up to the Jewish story to make sure there is a Jewish future. Let’s show up for them to bear witness to\, and to thank them for\, their story and their sacrifice. \nWe will honor this occasion with special music & prayers and invite all Israelis to join us on the bimah with Cantor Rosemberg for the Prayer for Israel. \nA festive Kiddush with an Israeli twist to follow. \nAbout Z and Y\nHer family founded a moshav in northern Israel\, where his family settled and worked the land. Over 100 years later\, they met in Tel Aviv. She was a lawyer at a top Israeli law firm\, and he was a senior commander in the Israeli Air Force. Shortly after they began dating\, October 7 happened. \nThey got married the same night Israel first struck Iran’s nuclear facilities. He was present for both – standing under the chuppah with her\, and later leading his fellow pilots in his F-16. \nAfter moving to the U.S. for her MBA at MIT\, he began working at a startup. They spent time enjoying shared hobbies like reading\, hiking\, pottery\, snowboarding\, and chess before he was called up for reserve duty during the second war with Iran. While they were apart for two months\, she became a part of this community. He has just returned\, and together they are here to share their story and thank you for your support. \nSponsored by Israel Connections Committee
