You’re Fostering Jewish Pride: Showing Up For our Heritage
Since October 7th, we’ve seen a shift in our community. The Jews are actively owning and expressing their Judaism. They are showing up in greater numbers to learn, to pray, and to Shabbat dinners —highlighting a deeper felt connection to their identity.
One of the ladies in the community offered to sponsor two pairs of Tefillin for two men who would commit to putting on Tefillin daily for the sercurity and safety of our IDF soldiers in Israel. Jewish young men flocked to strengthen their connection and express solidarity with Israel. While other members fo the community came forward and sponosred 6 additional pairs.
Participants share their daily experiences in our "Arms for Israel" WhatsApp group: Taran DePaola reflects, “Putting on Tefillin has deepened my connection to G‑d and our community. It’s a reminder to be proud of our Jewish identity, especially now.”
Billy Asarch’s journey echoes this sentiment, “Tefillin has brought me closer to my Judaism, reinforcing my pride in our heritage. jPhoenix is like family, offering connection and support.”
To put on Tefillin in honor of the saftey and security of our brothers and sisters in Israel, give Rabbi Shlomy a call or text at 480-788-9310.
