Our first Mobile Schul was delivered to Kibbutz Elon (located close to Afula in the Jezreel Valley ) on the 8th of Av, 12-August 2016! We received a beautiful thank you note from one of the members who wrote: “. . . for the past five years we were struggling together against the administration of the Kibbutz, local community council and Israel Land Authority for permission to have a schul! A.H. was there patiently supporting, pushing, helping, listening, guiding and negotiating with such great sensitivity and intelligence—and we finally succeeded. Last Friday, the eve of of "Tisha B'Av" we prayed for the first time in our mobile synagogue. I have no words to describe the feeling of elation, joy, and satisfaction that gripped the congregation and the members of our Kibbutz! We came to the land about 80 years ago or so, and until today we never had a Schul.. . .On a Personal note, my grandmother OBM, lost her parents and seven siblings in the Shoa. They were all from Romania and were deported to Auschwitz. My grandmother lived with that trauma all her life. She shared what happened to her with my mother, may she live till 120, who shared it with me. My relatives were murdered only because they were Jewish! Today, when I prayed in that Schul I knew that we were victorious over the Nazis, may their name be forever blotted out!”
