Israel Engagement
Israel is the eternal and sacred home of the Jewish people. In an ongoing way, the TBS community fosters a strong congregational relationship to Israel through education, dialogue, advocacy, tourism, and relationship building. Our goal is to be a catalyst for the members of the TBS community to deepen their relationship with Israel and her people. We do this by:
​
-
Engaging Modern Israel – Providing opportunities to deepen our understanding of modern Israel through speakers, seminars, and Israeli cultural offerings that bring religious, political, and historical issues into context and focus.
-
People to People Connections – Directly engaging with and build relationships with Israelis and Israeli organizations.
-
Tourism – Every other year, TBS brings dozens of TBS community members, family, and friends for a ten day adventure to Israel.
-
Family Education – Creating exciting new ways to bring Israel to life for our children and, in doing so, inspiring parents, as well, to learn with and through our children.
-
Helping Israel – Extending assistance through advocacy as well as philanthropy.
