Invitation to Tour South Africa and its Jewish communities
Dear Jewish Community Leader,
I am Ivor Heyman, Director of Faith & Resilience South Africa
(Faith). Faith is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to
discover Jewish communities around the world that have been
successful in adapting to local conditions while staying true to
their traditions.
Of all Jewish communities around the world, none exemplifies the
tenets of faith and resilience as much as the South African
Jewish community. We would like to invite you and interested
members of your community to gain an inside view of four
communities in South Africa that have been able to preserve their
traditions and their faith amidst the swirling tides of change
and uncertainty that now affects Jewish communities globally.
In addition to meeting community leaders and seeing first hand
how these communities have been successful, our visitors will be
able to experience much of the natural beauty that makes South
Africa such an attractive tourist destination. After the Jewish
portion of the trip ends, interested visitors can also sign up
for an optional three-day safari that we have organized at one of
South Africa's premiere game reserves.
This tour will introduce you not only to places, but to the
people that have been key to the success of the communities in
which they live. Owing to the personal nature of the trip, space
is limited, and we encourage you to register online as soon as
possible.
Please forward this invitation to others who might be interested
in this once in a lifetime experience, and feel free to contact
me if you have any questions.
Sincerely, Ivor Heyman
Director
Faith & Resilience South Africa
