I cried. For numerous reasons this is not an option
For me! Kol hakavod to those who have made the move!

Before Aliya stop and think.....

1) When we do aliya, we have to remember that Eretz Yisroel is Paltrin shel Melech Malchay Hamlochim Hakodosh Boruch Hu! Therefore, simultaneously, we must do a spiritual Aliya as well, to add in Torah and Mitzvos in our day to day life ! 2) Since we are still in golus , Moshiach did not do Kibutz golius yet, and most Yidden are still in chutz laaretz, each and everyone of us that Behashgocho Protis lives in Chutz Loretz, has an obligation to strengthen and build Yiddishkiet where ever Yidden live. Therefore helping Yidden in Chutz laaretz at this moment,… Read more »

Define Modern Orthodox?
You think you are better than them?
Be happy for your brothers and sisters making Aliyah.
Stop sounding like the Left Main stream media with your opinions and not provide more concrete facts.

Wolf, in RBS there are a total of about 800 Chabad families, schools, chedarim & fully-functioning shuls and Kehillot. Where do you get the idea from that only MO make Aliyah? Definitely not true.

I remember so well our Aliyah flight almost 4 years ago! We were so excited & sad at the same time…. we waited for 30 years to make Aliyah, having waited all that time for the Rebbe’s bracha to go (some of you know the story.) Sad because we left 4 children & their families back in Crown Heights. That was the hardest thing we have ever done, but not a day goes by where we don’t thank G-d for His brachot to be able to live in Eretz HaKodesh. It isn’t always easy, especially getting used to the turtle… Read more »

Great to be in Israel, but

…make sure you have a solid and realistic plan for parnussa. BTW many of the online jobs pay about $8-10 dollars an hour. I am for sure not trying to say it can’t work, just cautioning to come with a plan. Signed, Happy in Israel.

I don’t know where you live, but we (Lubavitchers from birth) moved a few years ago from Crown Heights, NY to Efrat, Israel. Did you make the move? There is a growing Lubavitch Anglo community in Rechovot as well as in Be’er Sheva. Beitar Illit has a large N’shei Chabad English speakers contingent. Our community has been slow to catch on and realize that Eretz Yisrael is where most of us should be. The Modern Orthodox community (of which quite a few are living in CH today – call them what you want) believes in aliya and strives to make… Read more »
