Message from Colonel Rapp
Panim el Panim - For Jewish Unity!
Be"H
Shalom Chaverim, our dear Brazilian Brothers.
I turn to you, true friends I've met in Sao Paulo and in Eretz Israel during the Bar Mitzva celebrations.
First of all, I would like to thank you for your special love for Am Israel and for our soldiers.
Secondly let me share with you two thoughts of mine:
The first is about Eretz Israel -
I love each and every one of you and I can't wait for the day we will all be united in Eretz Israel.
I admire the fact that you are learning Hebrew and also learning about the Mitzvah of living in Eretz Israel and I believe that every family should have a plan for Alia, if within months or years. There is actually not a better time to begin the search for a home in Israel than now, as the options are so vast, in terms of budget, size, amenities, locality and so much more. Of course Hebrew studies are very needed and everyone is warmly recommended to enhance his Hebrew abilities and knowledge.
The second thought is about Panim-el-Panim -
In Israel we are witnessing and being a change nowadays. People become more and more thirsty for Torah and are now open minded and willing to hear and learn about their Yahadut.
Basic questions like who we are? What are we fighting for? What are we living for? What is our national vision? Etc.
Panim-el-Panim is making huge efforts to bring the Torah Basic Knowledge & Values to the secular parts of the Israeli society - youth, teachers, soldiers, officers, college students and Kibbutzim Members.
I think and feel that it is important for everyone abroad to know about us and about our new ways of bringing Torah, Yahadut, Spirit, Emuna, with Ahavat Israel, to the entire nation.
So, I'm attaching our new Portuguese Trifold Flyer, with some highlights about Panim-el-Panim.
As a Tzahal Colonel, I fought in various fronts: in Lebanon, in Judea & Samaria, and in Gaza.
But I really think that nowadays our main front is the front of the Israelis' heart and soul.
Wouldn't you like to have a share of this amazing process?
Wishing you Kol Tuv and All the best, and looking forward to seeing you all soon!
Toda, and With love,
Geva
