Jonathan Lev, Executive Director of the Boulder JCC, recently returned from a mission trip from Israel, traveling with the Jewish Communities Center Association (JCCA). In this presentation on Monday, February 26 at the Boulder JCC, Jonathan will share details and photos from the trip. He will talk about who he met with, what he learned, and how he was inspired. The trip consisted of visiting different ravaged communities in Southern Israel and meeting with the parents of hostages, citizen volunteers, activists, academics, and evacuees.
In a recent email to the Boulder community Jonathan wrote, “If I were asked to summarize my trip, these six words capture the deep emotion and experience: Profoundly painful. Profoundly inspirational. Profoundly educational.”
