This past Sunday we had a Diller meeting about Israel and although it was SO early in the morning on a Sunday everybody showed up excited and enthusiastic about our leadership trip to Israel in less than a month!!! :)
We started off the meeting by watching a stereotypical clip of the "typical" Israeli from The Simpsons which personally, i found hilarious. We had a discussion about what stereotypes people might have of us, and how we want to be seen by others, before discussing how we should be acting as ambassadors of the Diller program and Montreal. Check out the Simpsons clip here, from aish.com:
Afterwards, we went through our itinerary, and realized how amazing this summer would be. Everyone then got into their groups to start planning what their group would be leading for the rest of the Diller teens while we're in Israel (Shabbat, speeches, community service planning) and lots of other great stuff. I have a feeling that this will be an unforgettable summer!
