On Rosh Chodesh Tammuz, 5776, 7-July 2016, we opened the schul and dedicated the Sefer Torah.  During the dedication, we held Bar Mitzvahs for members who had never celebrated their own Bar Mitzvah at the age of 13!  This was the first time in 75-80 years that such an event happened on the Kibbutz located near Har Tavor. The Mayor of Jezreel Valley attended.  Rav Raanan said  “it’s the first time in my life that ladies were escorting the Sefer Torah and were sobbing openly, completely overcome by emotion!” Rav Raanan invites you to stop by the Kibbutz when you are in Israel to daven there! Although there are no weekday minyanim yet, IY”H there will be soon!
