Welcome Home to the New Olim (and 338 photos)


Hi Everyone!

Congratulations and welcome home to the 234 new olim that made aliyah to Israel from North America. The NBN aliyah charter flight arrived in Israel on Tuesday morning and included 70 children in 31 families and 103 singles. The youngest oleh in the group is 5 months old and the oldest oleh is 94 years old. 85 of the olim are joining the IDF.

I took 338 photos of the exciting, historic event and I posted them online at:
www.jr.co.il/pictures/israel/history/2010/a594.htm

I also posted the 338 photos on Facebook for name tagging. There are two sets of photos and you can access the albums via:

and

If you have a Facebook acccount and you are in the photos or see someone you know, please feel free to name tag the photos.

May the aliyah from all over of the world grow and bring more Jews back to their homeland, Eretz Yisrael.

Have a good day,
Jacob
