Eat, pray, love.

11th grade students at the Katz Oriya High School for Girls spent this past Shabbat getting to know the Haredi community of Bnei Brak.

The girls were hosted by ultra-Orthodox families for Shabbat meals, met with the mayor of the city and other key figures from Haredi society, and experienced an uplifting, inspiring Shabbat characterized by unity and connection to a population that they are usually only familiar with from afar.

Many thanks to the organizers, this was definitely a special, one-of-a-kind experience!
