Help support our friends in Israel in their time of need.
#78 - Holding on to Hope
| Episode Guest: Ronen Ben Moshe
On today's podcast, Rich Ferreira speaks with our Israeli guide Ronen Ben Moshe about the current state of Israel since the October 7 attacks by Hamas. Thankfully, our guides, drivers and partners are safe. For Ronen and many other Israelis, however, that day was the worst in Israel since the Holocaust. Ronen describes what daily life in Israel right now is like and how adaptive people have become to help those in need. Israelis stand united, bonded together in solidarity, resilience and hope as they support one another. As the Jewish saying goes, "We overcame Pharaoh. We will overcome this."

Masada is a palace/fortress near the Dead Sea built by King Herod which we typically see on our Israel tours. Masada is a symbol of Israel's staunch determination to remain free. https://www.bibleplaces.com/masada/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Masada
