Community farewell

Posted

About 50 community members came to say lehitraot  (goodbye) to  Gilor Meshulam at an afternoon gathering on June 2.

Larry Katz, director of Jewish Life and Learning at the Jewish Alliance of Greater Rhode Island, spoke about the Israeli shaliach’s successful tenure in Rhode Island, where he was an active member of the community, teaching at area schools and leading community programs. Meshulam expects to return to Israel this summer. He recently became engaged to Rachel Shmookler, whom he met in Providence and who will join him in Israel later in the year.
