Shvut Ami presents the future: A campus for the advancement of the Judaism of the Jews of Russian Origin, in Beitar Ilit!<\/p>\n

These Jews can be found all over the world: FSU and Germany, America, Canada, etc. There is hardly a country that doesn\u2019t have Russian-speaking Jews. What they have in common is a\u00a0good education, knowledge of Russian, and their desire to connect with their spiritual roots.<\/p>\n

Since they are completely immersed in their busy lives, they are often distracted from this desire, until\u2026 some vague feeling completely takes over, an understanding that something must change in their lives. They must go to Israel, even for a short time, to get acquainted with those traditions that gave our people strength to survive through the millennia; to learn and to bask in the atmosphere of holiness and purity; at least for a short time, to throw off the yoke of materialism and to fill their souls with light.<\/p>\n

Where does one go? How does one do this? Who should one turn to?<\/p>\n

\nFor everyone like that, Shvut Ami is preparing a wonderful place! The current Yeshiva building lacks proper space for hosting guests. For this purpose, we are building a major center in Beitar Ilit. It\u2019s designed to allow everyone who is interested in getting acquainted with Judaism to do so in a pleasant environment.

We will do everything possible to make sure that our guests are as comfortable as possible.<\/p>\n
