In a little less than a week I will be in Israel attending the General Assembly of the Jewish Federation of North America, as well as the annual meeting of the Jewish Agency for Israel. Aside from the chance to hear from some great speakers, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and President Shimon Peres, one of the things I am most excited about is the opportunity to meet other Jewish leaders from across North America, many of whom are working to address challenges similar to those facing Jewish communities in New Hampshire.
I invite you to check back frequently during the first two weeks in November, when I will be posting regular updates from Israel in an effort to share some of the ideas and insights about Jewish identity, culture and community which will inevitably rise to the surface during these two conferences.
