Yom HaAtzmaut...
58 years since the establishment of the Modern State of Israel...
We have an awful lot to be thankful for...
Miracles on a daily basis, the biggest of which is the existence of Israel at all...
We thank our Creator for the opportunity to be here to experience the wonder and joy of the Jewish State of Israel
What better way to celebrate Israel Independence Day than with fireworks and barbecues?
Believing Jews add one more aspect to our celebration of Yom HaAtzmaut...
Prayer and thanks to G-d for our Homeland...
We don't forget how lucky we are to have our own Jewish State...
But we still love the fireworks and the grilled meat!
It's been a rough year...We've witnessed the surrender of parts of our Land and the expulsion of Jews from their homes...
The worst may be yet to come...
We hope and pray that it will only get better, but nowhere is it promised that the path will be easy...that there will not be setbacks and disappointments...
Jews around the world are joining in the celebrations of Israel Independence Day...But nothing can compare to the joy of experiencing the festivities right here, in Eretz Yisrael...
