    In light of the terrible atrocities perpetrated against our brothers and sisters in Israel, with G-d's help, I plan to go to Israel this coming Motzei Shabbat (Saturday Night). It was not an easy decision for Sara and I to make and we weighed this heavily for a few days before deciding. Together, with a small group of rabbis, we will visit soldiers, those who have been wounded and are recovering in hospitals, broken families who have lost their homes, families in mourning or awaiting the fate of their loved ones in captivity, and government officials.Our goal is to inspire, uplift, and send a message of hope that we in the Diaspora stand with our brothers and sisters in the Holy Land!Some specific places I will visit include the Soroka Hospital in Beer Sheva, the largest hospital in Southern Israel, where many of the wounded are currently residing. I will also be visiting wounded soldiers and other victims from the terror attack at the El Shomer Hospital, homes of people sitting shiva, as well as army bases to provide support to our soldiers. I hope to bring even a small measure of comfort and Chizuk (encouragement) by showing them that our community stands with them and cares tremendously about them!We need to unite! We have all been praying to G-d, doing more Mitzvot and whatever else we can to help Israel. Everyone has their role to fill in providing help and support. Let us do what we can -- even in some small measure -- to alleviate some of the suffering. Let us show our solidarity with the people of Israel by taking on an extra Mitzvah at https://onemitzvah.org/israel/rabbi-bernaths-team and by donating to help the wounded and the families who have lost loved ones.

We want to distribute as much funding as possible to help those in need in this desperate time. Please participate in this Mitzvah. How beautiful will it be to be able to show up to comfort the mourners, not only with a show of emotional support, but an envelope for them as well.You are also welcome to take part in this mission by preparing uplifting cards, letters, and artwork that I will distribute during my visit. Anyone who takes part in any way in my trip will get a link to join a special WhatsApp group where I will update you in realtime.May we very soon see the fulfillment of the prophecy that a time will come when "One nation will not lift a sword against another nation, and they will beat their swords into plowshares" -- with the speedy arrival of Moshiach, Amen!With prayers for peace in the Holy Land and around the world.Rabbi Yisroel BernathSupport the show

    I share with you some heartfelt words about the situation in Israel and my sentiments — at a confusing and devastating time. This may seem simple but in times of crisis it's hard to stay focused — yet it's imperative that we do. There is only today. Don't think about tomorrow. Don't think about next week. It's about today and it's about action. Remaining stunned, immobile, and continuously processing are luxuries we simply don't have. We must focus on what we can do today!  Here's a few things you can do:1.  Go through the contacts in your phone and start texting people in Israel to let them know you are thinking of them. Include in this group people who you don't know so well. A good word and a demonstration of love from a geographical distance goes a million miles. 2. The needs in Israel right now are tremendous. There are thousands of organizations and causes out there. Everyone is doing a good job — and they all need support. I believe we need to tap into our networks and people on the ground in Israel to see how we can help individuals. We need to be the eyes and ears via our contacts to see what we can do to help the individual on the street. Let's be there for our family! Our community has been involved in sending supplies to the front lines. Every dollar you give goes directly to them and we will cover the credit card fees: https://ndg.chabadsuite.net/civicrm/contribute/transact?reset=1&id=363. We have joined with Jews across the world for the 1 Million Mitzvah Campaign: https://onemitzvah.org/israel/rabbi-bernaths-team. When we pray or dedicate a good deed to our brothers and sisters in Israel, we create a spiritual shield that will help them through difficult and dangerous times: https://www.jewishndg.com/library/article_cdo/aid/6120608/jewish/7-Things-You-Can-Do-for-Israel-Now.htm4. Download this little book and pray. These are prayers Jews have said for centuries in times of distress: https://jewishndg.com/media/pdf/1248/PQoG12484159.pdf5. Recognize that the news updates are few at this point, the devastation is real, and though it seems like a bad dream, unfortunately it's not. We must be mentally strong as we need to be part of the armour of the Jewish nation. If that means not being glued to the news, recognize that. It requires changing the conversation from ‘how could it be' to ‘what can we do'. I believe that it will both give Israel the greatest support and help restore the balance in your life that you're seeking. Action does that as does the faith that we will endure. We are not victims and we can't allow ourselves to feel that way!!6. The Torah teaches us (and history has repeatedly demonstrated to us) that the physical protection of each one of us — and, indeed, our very collective destiny! — is intrinsically connected to our spiritual activism.Please find below some additional suggestions:We pray fervently for the definitive, resounding and swift success of the Israel Defense Forces and for the safety of our soldiers and the people of Israel. May the Almighty shower compassion upon the Nation of Israel!  Sincerely,Rabbi Yisroel BernathSupport the show
