Rabbi Weill's Blog

Dear Friends,

In sadness and dismay, Ezra-Habonim, the Niles Township Jewish Congregation stands in solidarity with our Israeli sisters and brothers. The large-scale invasion into Israel’s sovereign territory, and the specific targeting of civilians, is nothing less than terrorist mass murder. Nothing could ever justify such malevolence and brutality. 

We mourn for those who have been killed and we pray for the safe return of those who have been kidnapped. We pray for peace to reign in the region.

We should also provide desperately needed financial support. Follow this link to contribute to the Jewish United Fund’s Israel Emergency Fund.

We will provide updates as relevant community events are scheduled.

L’Shalom,

Rabbi Jeffrey Weill
