Shabbat Guest

Socializing Seniors Through the Preservation of Traditions.

As part of the Shabbat Guest project, our volunteers, together with members of AJT, visit their beneficiaries monthly. In October, they visited Valentina Alexandrovna and her daughter Natalia, participants in the Rainbow program by @hesed_rakhamim_belarus.

Young members from Noar Shemesh hosted Shabbat, sharing stories about Jewish traditions and holidays. Valentina Alexandrovna treated the guests to tea and pastries while reminiscing about her childhood in Georgia and Odessa.

The volunteers also brought food packages through the #FoodSecurity program, which was greatly appreciated. The atmosphere was warm and cozy, as Shabbat tradition demands.
