I had the incredible opportunity to travel to Israel this past
September. I traveled with my husband, Rabbi Rosenberg and Karen Rader from the
Jewish Federation on an Interfaith couples trip. I spent nine days with people
from the St. Louis area on a journey I will never forget.
Israel to me is the Holy land. The place where religion began
and the commandments were written.The Sea of Galilee boat ride and dinner at a
seaside restaurant was one memory that I can envision clearly.
Darkness fell and we walked together as a group to listen to a man sing
and play guitar. He shared his background and his knowledge of Judaism.
He shared his voice and music to connect us all. I felt
inclusion,enlightened and spiritual. The people, the country and my new
found friends/travel companions have left an imprint on my heart
and in my memories.
