Prayer In Support of Women of the Wall & A Light Breakfast “to Go”
Participate in a joyful, peaceful morning service in solidarity with the Women of the Wall.

Welcome the new month by standing alongside our sisters in Israel. We promise you’ll be on your way in an hour! For more information about Women of the Wall, visit: www.womenofthewall.org.il
