They Called It

THIS YEAR IN JERUSALEM

One decade after the reunification of Jerusalem 3,000
American Jews-- including 100 Detroiters spanning three
generations-- marched down the streets of Israel's ancient
capital and stood before the Western Wall. Uniting them?
A love of Israel and the desire to express it. As the cheering
Jerusalemites gathered along the curb and grasped the out-
stretched hands of the marchers, the true meaning of Jewish
solidarity was brought home...

Ruth Broder, who with
Edie Mittenthal and
Jane Sherman had
the honor of bearing
Detroit's banner, called
it a "once-in-a-lifetime
experience that will
bind us always."

.

The warm welcome by the children of Jerusalem was echoed by thousands of Israelis,
said Detroit Mission Chairman Dr. Leon Fill,„who led the local delegation wall the
assistance of Co-Chairmeri David S. Mondry and Ruth. K. Broder. And what of the
Detroiters' response? At fund-raising caucuses in Israel, they aunounced pledges to
the 1977 Allied Jewish Campaign-Israel EmergenCy Fund that totaled 50% more than
their own previous year's contributions. 'This Year in Jerusalem' touched us all so
deeply," said Dr. Fill, "we'd like it to be 'Every Year in Jerusalem'."
