The State of Israel was established as a homeland for the Jewish People. The principle of the “Law of Return” is to bring Jews from all over the world to Israel to reunite as one People. However the 2,000 years of Diaspora has created a large gap between Jews living throughout the world.
The Weekend Retreats we conduct at the Chamah Community Center, contributes a great deal to the unity of our People. We are eye- witnesses that people from different walks of life, when being together even if it is just for one weekend, unexpectedly find themselves more open to other ideas and opinions.
It cultivates an atmosphere conducive to learning about our Jewish heritage and traditions.
This past weekend doctors and their families were hosted at Chamah for an annual doctor’s convention.
