Jewish Tradition at Amigour

Elderly women residing at Amigour's "Vered" Home for the Elderly in Kiryat Motzkin recently came together to participate in a heartwarming Jewish ceremony of Hafrashat Challah. This beautiful tradition is often done as a communal or family activity, with many women gathering to prepare the bread together. It is an opportunity for bonding, reflection, and spiritual connection.

In Jewish tradition, when making bread, a small piece of the dough is separated before baking and a blessing is recited. With skilled hands and loving hearts, Amigour's residents shaped the dough into the cherished challah loaves, a symbol of unity and sustenance for the Jewish people.

As the women worked together, heartfelt prayers were shared, invoking blessings for the safe return of all hostages and the protection of Israel's brave soldiers.

Their participation in the ceremony of Hafrashat Challah not only filled their Home with the aroma of freshly baked bread, but also warmed the hearts of those who witnessed their devotion to tradition and the well-being of our beloved Israel.
