ARZA Canada  joins with the world in mourning the loss of Naftali Frankel, Gilad Shaar, and Eyal Yifrach. We express our solidarity and unity with  the people of Israel at this terrible loss.  We especially offer our condolences to the three families who are going through an unimaginable sorrow  and who  have the support not only of all Israelis but of Jews all over the world. To our family of Reform Jews in Israel, we offer our special prayers and thoughts.
 
We echo the words of Rabbi Rick Jacobs, President of the Union for Reform Judaism, "The callous slaughter of these three innocent teens sends shudders through the conscience of all feeling people. May the boys' unfinished lives be remembered for a blessing and may their memories inspire us as we pray, and work, for the peace of Jerusalem ". 

We  pray for an end to violence and terror in our homeland and for a time of peace in the region.
