Once again, Jewish people in Israel are under attack by terrorists. In recent weeks there have been more than 30 attacks on innocent men, women and children all around the country. Seven people have been killed, and many more have been injured. Some of the victims were visiting the Western Wall to pray; some were driving home with their kids; others were simply heading off to work. One 13-year old child was critically injured while riding his bicycle home from school.
The attacks were carried out everywhere in the country—from the major cities of Jerusalem and Tel Aviv to cities and towns all around the country.
In these moments, we ask: What can I do for Israel? How can I help?
Obviously, the Israeli authorities are striving to do all in their power to protect the nation’s citizens. But there is something we can do as well, wherever we live. As Jews, we know that our physical protection is very much connected to our spiritual activities, and when we pray or dedicate a good deed to our brothers and sisters in Israel, we create a spiritual defense shield that will help us through difficult and dangerous times.
Here are six positive responses to do for Israel and its people.
