DESCRIPTION:Tuesday\, April 29\, 11:15 AM EDT   — note earlier time for this program \nYerushalayim – Heavenly City and Earthly City\,  \npresented by Rav Doron Perez\, Executive Chairman of the Mizrachi World Movement and the Chairman of the Department for Religious Affairs of the World Zionist Organization. \nSince assuming his position as the head professional of World Mizrachi in 2014\, Rabbi Perez has focused on organizational transformation\, providing a wide range of inspirational programming with Mizrachi currently active in 32 countries worldwide. He previously served the South African Jewish community for 15 years as the Rabbi of the South Africa Mizrachi Movement\, Senior Rabbi of the Mizrachi Shul\, and the Head of Yeshiva College schools. Rabbi Perez has Rabbinic Ordination\, a BA in Jewish education\, and an MA in Jewish history and has authored two books: Leading the Way – a collection of writings on some of life’s most important issues\, and recently\,  The Jewish State – from Opposition to Opportunity – a manifesto on Zionism and Jewish statehood. The latter book is available in English and Hebrew and is currently being translated into Spanish and Portuguese.  He is married to Shelley and resides in Yad Binyamin – they have four children. Their second son\, Captain Daniel Perez was killed in action on October 7th and is currently being held hostage in Gaza. \nElection information presented by Ari Wartelsky\, Campaign Manager\, OIC Mizrachi \nEvery five years\, American Jews have the opportunity to vote for delegates to the World Zionist Congress\, often referred to as the “parliament of the Jewish people.” Participating in this election is a powerful way to ensure your voice is heard in Israel\, to positively influence Jewish communities globally\, and to demonstrate your support for Zionism. The elected representatives play a crucial role in deciding how to allocate over $1 billion each year\, directing funds to address the most urgent needs within Israeli society and the Diaspora.    \nOIC-Mizrachi\, (Slate 5)\, is a broad coalition of leading Orthodox Zionist organizations in the US\, including RZA\, AMIT\, Orthodox Union\, Yeshiva University\, Rabbinical Council of America\, National Council of Young Israel\, Touro College\, Torah MiTzion\, Bnei Akiva\, Shvilim\, UMJCA\, and other affiliated institutions.   OIC Mizrachi is committed to the enduring principles of the Torah and the central role of the Land and State of Israel in Jewish life. We are dedicated to serving the Jewish community through educational programs and services both in Israel and around the world. \nClick here for the zoom link to register and receive the recording after the program. \n  \nThis program is dedicated to the memories of Moshe Ben Dov Ber (a”h) and Shayna Mirel bas Aharon (a”h) (Melvin and Mirele Steinig) \n  \nCORPORATE SPONSORS:   \nMEMORY MATTERS — https://renayudkowsky.com/signature-course/ \nCAPITIL REAL ESTATE — https://capitil.com/ \nMEDICARE INSURANCE SPECIALIST — https://www.65andready.com/ \nFORSPANKLEAR\, LLP — https://www.forspanklear.com/ \nWINSTON WEALTH ADVISORS — https://winstonwealthadvisors.com/ou/ \nSCHWARTZ BROTHERS JEFFER/SINAI CHAPEL/PARKSIDE MEMORIAL CHAPELS — https://www.dignitymemorial.com/funeral-homes/forest-hills-ny/schwartz-brothers-jeffer-memorial-chapels/4131 \nCITIZENS BANK — https://lo.citizensbank.com/nj/woodcliff-lake/david-siegel \nJRESPONDER — https://www.sosresponder.com/ \nKORINSKY & KLEIN\, LLP —  https://www.kklawfirm.com/ \nLET’S GET ORGANIZED — https://lgorganized.com/ \n____________________________________________________________________ \nWe have created a new SPIRIT website with archives and upcoming programs!
