Shabos Nachamu has been
chosen by the Mizrachi organi-
zation of Detroit to open its
membership drive in the local
synagogues. Leaders in the Miz-
rachi movement, including prom-
inent Rabbis and laymen, will
address worshippers and urge
them to join the organization and
become active in the upbuilding
of Eretz Israel.
Presidents of the different con-
gregations have joined in the
campaign, and many have prom-
ised to enroll more members
than the quota designated for
their respective synagogues.
Orthodox Jewry now realizes
its responsibility to join the ac-
tive Zionist ranks in order to
strengthen our prospects for
Eretz Israel now and for the
future.
