NJHSA Statement in Response to the Tragic Losses in Mt. Meron, Israel

April 30, 2021

‍

The Network of Jewish Human Service Agencies extends its deepest condolences to the families and friends of those who died in yesterday’s Lag B’Omer tragedy in Mt. Meron.

We are especially thinking of our Israeli colleagues at this time and wish them strength as they work to support their communities through the period of mourning and the days and months that follow.

As a global Jewish community, we are connected in many ways and our hearts are with the entire people of Israel at this heartbreaking time.

We are sending our prayers of healing to all and to the entire State of Israel.

May the memories of those who died always be for a blessing.
