The news about the three Israeli kidnapped teens is unbelievable and unbearable. As noted by many, "they" are "us," too. Our prayers are with their families, friends, and all Jews everywhere. Just a reminder that the JECC has a resource, RESPONDING TO CRISIS, that could be helpful for those of you working on responses for campers, students or congregants. You'll find it linked below with specific sections on responding with our heads (intellectually), our hearts (emotionally) and our hands (getting involved). There are also tabs on: "Talking with Children," "Avenues for Response" (could be helpful for camps or synagogues), and "Texts from our Tradition." Feel free to pass along other resources (generic, please, not situation-specific) to us at the JECC - we'll keep updating the site over the next few days. http://jeccrespondingtocrisis.weebly.com/israel.html
