In just a few days, I will be part of a small group of Reform Rabbis who will have the distinct pleasure and honor of travelling to Brazil. We'll have the chance to meet with various members of the Jewish community and learn all about the vibrant Jewish history of Brazil, dating back hundreds of years. In fact, our trip even includes a visit to Kahal Zur-Israel in Recife, which is the first synagogue in the Americas!
While in Brazil, our itinerary also includes many wonderful plans such as spending Shabbat with the Jewish community of São Paulo and visiting the Jewish Museum and the Great Temple in Rio de Janeiro and much, much more!
It is my hope that through this blog, you'll have the opportunity to learn a little more about the Jewish communities in Brazil. You'll get to "see" some amazing sights and even make some wonderful "connections."
