Shavei Tzyon | Return to Zion Congregation

Haifa, Israel



Leading up to Passover, it has become a tradition in our congregation to start the celebrations with an evening for new immigrants. This year it was especially poignant as many of the newcomers were those who had fled the war in Ukraine.


During the program, young students from our school of the arts “Rainbow of Sounds” presented their music. Volunteers from the congregation told the guests the account of the Exodus from Egypt and the way God’s mighty deeds have been celebrated and memorialized in Israelite heritage ever since. Delicious Passover treats were served.


We were glad to be able to share Hebraic biblical traditions and an in-depth Messianic worldview with the new immigrants who are returning in these days to the Land of Promise, just as their forefathers came from Egyptian slavery thousands of years ago.
