Events

In a time when antisemitism is rising, and the world feels increasingly uncertain, how do we guard ourselves, our faith, and our communities — while still shining as a light for Hashem and Israel?

Join us for an immersive Young Adult Retreat focused on the powerful lessons of Nehemiah: leadership, courage, unity, and vigilance. Together, we will explore what it means to live out שמר (shamar) — to guard what Hashem has entrusted to us, spiritually and communally.
