🇮🇱 From Potomac to the Front Lines

Worth passing along

Rebbetzin Sarah Blooming of Chabad of Potomac shared a moving milestone this week as her son Yosso was commissioned as an officer in the IDF.

In one photo, Rabbi Mendel and Rebbetzin Blooming stand beside their son; in another, he is seen speaking with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, joined by senior leadership. (His face is respectfully blurred in accordance with IDF protocol.)

A family moment. A national moment. Faith, service, and responsibility meeting in one frame.

Some uniforms are worn. Others are carried.
