North American Seminar-Monday, April 11th

After a great weekend at home and a community service filled Sunday, we were back to our normal schedule on Monday. The Israelis began the day with a Ma'agal Boker, or morning ma'agal. After that, they made phone calls from the Federation. Next, the Israelis had a college encounter and lunch at the JUC. They then went to the nationality rooms and were able to walk around. At the end of the nationality rooms, they went to the Israel Heritage Room and talked about what they liked about it and what they would change if it was their room. Then the Pittsburgh Fellow met up with the Israelis at the JCC for a peoplehood program with Tal Gale. The program was filled with a study of the Tanach, looking at the text from different perspectives, and coming up with an idea of what peoplehood is. Finally, we went to Funfest to go bowling. We invited other Jewish teens from the area who are eligible to join Diller next year. We showed them what Diller is about and how much fun they can have if they join next year. After another fun filled day, we were all tired out but looking forward to tomorrow when we have the opportunity to go to the Pirates game!
