Voting is now OPEN for the World Zionist Congress elections. It is time to have our voices heard in Israel! Each and every vote from our congregation is crucial to maintaining a strong Reform presence. This is our chance to combat the discrimination the Reform Movement faces in Israel. Together we can grow our Reform Movement and make progress on the issues we care about: religious freedom, equality, and many more.
Voting will remain open until March 11, 2020. Your vote in this election is the only democratic opportunity you have to influence Israeli society.
Go to www.zionistelection.org to Vote Reform: ARZA Representing the Reform Movement and Reconstructing Judaism.
Once you have voted please email Beth Lavranchuk at VoteReform@TempleBethElNJ.org to let her know. We will be tracking participation and entering your names into a drawing for dinner for two at Zahav, a fine dining Israeli restaurant in Philadelphia.
Together, we can have a real impact in Israel. Please VOTE REFORM.
