Jewish Holidays

This year, Yom HaAtzmaut, Israel's Independence Day, finds me in a place that the past 10 years have not: in my birth country, the United States. My journey to and from Israel includes chapters that people can instinctively understand: a year of protesting judicial overhaul in Israel, the events of October 7th, and the bitter war in which we are still immersed.

The Nevas family's history is deeply rooted in their desire to make a positive impact on the world. This year's Seder, marked the next chapter in the family's tradition.

As we gather around the Seder table this year, let's defy the divisions of our polarized world and model a different way of being together.
