Holy Travel: Russian Israelis, Auschwitz Album, and Jerusalem's race

Israel’s “non-Jewish” Jews

The subject of Russian Christian immigrants in Israel is a sensitive one that most are hesitant to discuss.

The Auschwitz Album Revisited

Pat Mercer Hutchens, teacher and accomplished practicing artist, has completed a series of twelve paintings to remember and honor those who perished in the Holocaust. All the paintings were motivated by the Auschwitz Album, the only surviving photographic evidence of Jews arriving and being “processed” at a Nazi death camp.

FEATURES:

	Race for the Cure Overtakes Jerusalem in Pink and White Some 5,000 Israelis – Jews, Christians and Muslims – joined the 5 km. route
Three Empires – Ramat Rahel We recently attended a terrific lecture at Tel Aviv University on the three empires, Assyrian, Babylonian, and Persian, that ruled Judah before Alexander the Great’s era.
Tip Toe Through the Tulips: Israel’s Inspirational Tulip Winery Mostly every winery has a story worth telling. I’d venture to say that wineries with the most interesting stories often make the most interesting wines. One winery whose story pulls on the heart strings as well as pleases the palette is the Tulip Winery.

TRAVELERS’ TALES:

Medical Tourism? My husband just had open heart surgery a month ago here in one of Israel’s world-class hospitals. We researched going abroad for the procedure and realized that we had the best care available here in our own backyard.
Hello fellow Travelujah Spiritual Questers & Friends Why am I now traveling to Israel? My purpose today is to embrace experientially, the Holy Land’s Mystical Spiritual Traditions and diversity by putting on the heart and mind of Jewish, Christian, Muslim and Baha”i Spiritualities.
