TRAVEL TO ISRAEL

2011 Summer Family Israel Trip:
June 22 - July 3
Visit the Promised Land with Rabbi Jaffe

As questions of peoplehood and the Israel - US relationship are more pressing then ever, join us in engaging with Israel through an in depth family trip this summer.  The 12 day tour will focus on both historical sites and modern issues, while allowing time to enjoy the land of milk and honey (and to escape the June fog!).  Please find below a first draft of the tour itinerary, which will take us from Jerusalem to the Golan Heights, from modern Tel Aviv to mystical Sfat, from Masada to the old city.  The trip is directed towards singles and families alike.  At all sites, a youth and adolescent educator will be on hand to guide all children in attendance, while the main guide will continue with the tour group.  

Land cost for the full program, including hotels, meals and tips, is $2,500. Financial assistance is available upon request.  All participants are responsible for their own air travel, arriving in Tel Aviv by June 22.  

If you are interested in joining us, please email Rabbi Jaffe atjjaffe@emanuelsf.orgor call 415-751-2541 x109.

On Tues, October the 12th, we will hold an information session for all potential participants in the family Israel trip. Kayla Shipp from Keshet, our tour operator, will be visiting from Israel to go over all details and answer any questions you might have.  The meeting is being held at 6pm so that any interested participants may attend the 7:15pm annual meeting.
