Passover is upon us and we wanted to take this chance and wish all of you Chag Samech (Happy holiday).

Here is a short video capturing the story of the Jewish people's Exodus from Egypt, all in 5 minutes - click to play and enjoy.




In the spirit of this holiday, as we celebrate the freedom of the Jewish people, let's remember the abducted soldiers and those missing in action. Passover is the Jewish Festival of Freedom, but these are years of freedom denied for eight Israeli soldiers. On this Seder night, please leave an empty chair at the table, in solidarity with the soldiers and their families.
