Contact Elected Officials 

Elected officials need to hear from us how important their support for and standing with Israel in this time of need is. 

Prayer

As Rabbi Silberstein wrote earlier, we can all recite Psalms and pray to G-d to please heal our injured, return our captives, comfort our mourners, grant victory to our soldiers, safeguard and protect everyone in Israel from further violence and harm, and bring about a lasting peace. Psalms 6, 20, 46, 79, 83, 121 and 130 are especially appropriate to recite at this time. They can be found online here. 

Reach out to Friends and Family in Israel

Let them know you are thinking about them during these difficult times.

Make sure you are staying healthy.
