In this week’s parsha, Lech Lecha, Hashem calls Avraham and Sarah to leave behind their birthplace and everything familiar, setting out on a journey of faith and growth.
This story resonates deeply for me, as I made aliyah two years ago with Daniel Rubenstein, and we embraced our own new path here in Israel.
Doing abstract art and journaling help soothe my soul. And I’m passionate about sharing this experience with others.
I offer private lessons in art and writing, providing a warm, supportive space for women and children to explore their creativity and self-expression during these otherwise stressful times.
