Bus 5 Saturday | Shorashim - Israel with Israelis

Bus 5 Saturday

By Bus 5

Friday evening began most of our first times experiencing Shabbat in Israel.

One of our group members, along with our staff, created a very meaningful and interactive service for everyone to take part in. One of the best topics we talked about was how Shabbat should be relaxing in however you feel that is.

Bus 5 began their Saturday (Shabbat) with a much needed extra few hours of sleep. We then met up to do some group activities that allowed us to work together and perform the Amidah with different poses.

After this, we enjoyed a nice lunch at a long table while listening to some other groups singing their prayers. Once our energy was replenished, everyone raced to the pool to have a relaxing Shabbat afternoon.

Our Shabbat concluded with a nice dinner and a preparation activity for the Holocaust museum. 

After the sun went down we boarded the bus for a fun night of exploring the city of Jerusalem.
