Aish Connections aims to reJEWvenate young professionals and families by feeding their minds (with topics ranging from Israel and Judaism to personal growth and relationships), indulging their bodies (with luxurious accommodations and gourmet cuisine) and exciting their souls (with an inspiring Shabbos away from the rush of every day life).
The weekend will be a great success as our internationally renowned speakers have diverse and interesting backgrounds and experiences, ranging from top US attorneys and businessmen to eminent Jewish scholars.
Michael Hoenlein will be addressing the attendees. Recently ranked as the most influential Jewish leader, Hoenlein is a celebrated individual. For example, in May 2008 President George W. Bush appointed Hoenlein to serve on the Honorary Delegation to accompany him to Jerusalem for the celebration of the 60th anniversary of the State of Israel.
The weekend will take place in the Stamford Plaza, a luxurious hotel with a pool and gym, giving participants the opportunity to escape the hustle and bustle of every day life, and appreciate an inspiring and beautiful Shabbat. There are even babysitting facilities for families so parents can truly relax.
Rabbi Yitz Greenman, Executive Director of Aish Connections, says ‘With recent tragedies, such as the cruel murder of the Fogel family in Itamar, it’s more important than ever that Jews unite together as a people. If we all push aside our differences, together we can hope for peace for all Jews and for Israel.
We are really excited about this event and are expecting it to be a great success. There is a large team working on it who have put in a lot of thought and made great pains to bring in the best speakers as well as paying great attention to detail. We are aiming to host hundreds of participants from across the Jewish communities in the tri-state area and believe that it will be a uniting and inspiring experience for all.’
‘We are offering a whole range of opportunities for other Jewish organizations to partners with us for the event…’ says Michal Nordmann, Marketing Director at Aish Connections, ‘…everything from having a presence at the event in our Saturday Night Faire to benefiting from media contra-deals’.
