Israel Experiences

Traveling to Israeltry-region> is a life changing experience and is something that Congregation B'nai Shalom strongly supports.We suggest two outstanding opportunities for high school students, NFTY in Israel summer program and the NFTY-EIE semester in Israeltry-region>.

NFTY-In-Israel

Many of our high school students, especially those who are entering 11th grade, choose to participate in an Israeltry-region> youth program. As a Reform Congregation, we highly recommend the NFTY in Israel program. Please visit the NFTY website for more information about this experience

For the Reform teen looking for the ultimate in life experience, the Eisendrath International Exchange High School in Israel is the time of a lifetime. For over 40 years, the Reform Movement has been sending youth to Israel, with this four-month or six and a half weekaccredited high school nestled in the Judean Mountains serving as the premiere program. Students live together, learn together and grow together as a community as they explore four thousand years of Jewish memory, learn Hebrew, and come to know Israel as their second home. Go on EIE and connect with your history, your land and your people!
