Donate to the Israeli Reform movement to directly help Israelis from the communities near Gaza


prayer for peace, by Israeli Reform Rabbi Mira Regev




The events of October 7th have left a permanent scar on our collective soul. We are still trying to wrap our heads around the extent of the tragedy and the implications for our Jewish brothers and sisters in Israel as well as the larger Jewish world. We send a collective prayer to the brave soldiers of the Israel Defense Forces as they defend our homeland against the genocidal terrorists of Hamas. 

In this tragic and devastating time, our hearts go out to all who are mourning the loss of a loved one and all who are praying for the recovery of injured family members and friends. Of course, we especially hope and pray for the safe return of the hostages held captive in Gaza, women, children, the elderly and the disabled, among many others. 

Accompanying our own sense of disbelief is the understandable desire to know what we can do to help, any support we can offer our brothers and sisters in Israel as they confront this tragedy and the massive war effort accompanying it. Below you will find resources to show your support through a variety of different ways.

Am Yisrael Chai!

We stand in disbelief at the astonishing increase in antisemitism and antisemitic hate crimes around the globe. The resurgence of the world’s oldest hatred and most poisonous disease leaves us feeling frustrated and helpless. And yet, we are not alone. Please report any antisemitic act immediately. Together we will expel the darkness and proclaim this truth to the entire world: Israel has and always will be a light unto the nations, and we will continue to advocate for the Jewish homeland no matter where we find ourselves.
