BECOME A PART OF THE FAMILY OF IRAEL
In most of the media we hear a very negative and biased view of Israel, but seldom do we hear about the beauty, fulfillment, developments, opportunities, freedoms and diversities of this amazing Land. You should look into the heartbeat of Israel - maybe this is what you have been looking for all along. There is no doubt that God has, is and will keep His covenant promises to this Land and its people, despite the challenges and struggles that it is facing.
​
Come and experience the good news from the Land! The Torah talks about Joshua and Caleb, who spied out the Promised Land and brought back a good report about what they saw, even though there were several "giants" to overcome (בַּמִּדְבָּר Numbers 13:16-33, 14:19)
​
They trusted in God. The other spies look at the obstacles and feared, seeing themselves as small as grasshoppers, unable to move into the Land to receive the inheritance that awaited them. They began to forget all about God and His promise. Millions of our Jewish people have come to live in Israel from every nation, making a statement that it is our covenant land and a place set aside for us as a national homeland, a land to prosper in. So, come explore this wonderful Land with us and then let us help you fulfill your dream of being able to live in a place unlike any other place in the world!

עִליּהָ * aliyah, "ascent" is the immigration of our people from the Diaspora to the land of Israel. Also defined as "the act of going up" or as in progressing towards Jerusalem.
WHY MAKE ALIYAH?
"Roughly 15 years ago I made a personal decision to leave the comfortable lifestyle and familiar surroundings of America in order to settle down and build my life in Israel.
I believe the greatest potential for a Jew to be in tune with his real self, to live his life according to his true inner voice, is here in the Land of Israel. In this respect there is absolutely no comparison to anywhere else in the world. As great as America might be, and I say this as a former American who has nothing but fond memories of the US, the best home for a Jew is in the Land of Israel. It's really that simple." - Yoel Meitzer
3 Reasons to Make Aliyah and Stay
If I told you that living in Israel was easy, I would be lying. Prices for basically anything from groceries to cars to apartments are sky high. Salaries are generally much lower compared to other countries for the exact same positions.
There is the security situation and the fact that we don’t know if a war will break out from one day to the next. Some days living here can be very difficult.
​
Despite these challenges, I don’t regret making aliyah for a minute.
In fact, I count making aliyah as one of the best decisions I have ever made. But with the daily grind of life here, sometimes it is easy to lose sight of what make Israel so special. Thus, I have come up with a list of three reasons why I made aliyah and continue to love life in Israel.
