    Lights unto the Nation: Akko Kibbutz Hosts Australian High School Students

    This month we strengthened our connections with Jewish communities oversees when we were graced by visits from two groups of Australian High School students from Sydney and Melbourne who visited Israel over the course of the winter (Southern Hemisphere summer) in between tenth and eleventh grade. Fifty students from Sydney’s Emanuel High School came to Akko on the last night of Hanukkah to meet with graduates of their own high school who are now living out their dream as memb

    Hannukah Of the Educators' Kibbutz

    How wonderful it was to celebrate Hannukah, the festival of light, by dedicating our new building of the Akko Educators' Kibbutz. After 13 years of living in Akko, we got to build this beautiful home and invite so many of our friends in the community to celebrate with us. We were honored by the Mayor of Akko Mr. Shimon Lankri, The city's Rabbi Yosef Yashar, Imam Sheikh Samir A'asi, Sefton Bergson of the UJIA and Tomer Abudi the director of Educators' Kibbutzim in ror Israel,

    We Must Increase the Light

    Throughout the eight days of Chanukah, members of the Educators' Kibbutz lit candles with program participants. We made sufganiyot, latkes, and sang Chanukah songs. In addition to the well-known prayers and songs, we add our own blessing from the works of A.D. Gordon: "The light will not triumph over the darkness as long as we do not observe the simple truth that, rather than fight the darkness, we must increase the light." Our educational activities and direct connection wit

    Bringing the Taverna from Greece to Akko

    Last Monday, as part of the "Mediterranean Basin Festival" which takes place in Akko each year, we opened a Greek Taverna in the Jam. The packed venue was filled with 140 guests who had pre-ordered tickets with many more on the waiting list. Before the concert began, we lit the seventh Chanukah candle with the entire Jam community. You can watch the video! Rami Yehuda, a well-known Greek singer born and raised in Akko, performed at the Jam. He said, "I'm so happy to return an
