John,
The Israeli cabinet has just approved the first phase of the
U.S.-led peace initiative -- paving the way for the release of every
Israeli hostage taken on October 7.
In the coming days, our community will join our brothers and
sisters in Israel on an emotional rollercoaster as we await
confirmation of families reunited with their loved ones -- both those
who return alive and those who will be returned to their final resting
place in Israel. We are all hopeful that this marks the beginning of a
path toward healing for the victims and safety for the region. But we
are not naïve; we remember how Hamas has cynically manipulated
previous agreements.
As our community has come together time and again across
Canada over the last two years, I invite you to join us for a
special
online gathering
on:
Sunday, October 12 at 12:00 PM
EST 👉RSVP
HERE
Together with some of the Canadian families of those who were
murdered or taken hostage, we will mark this critical moment as a
united community.
Please RSVP
and invite your friends and family to join.
Shabbat Shalom,
Noah Shack CEO,
CIJA
