Israel Mourns the passing of a young family, Parents and three children from a terrorist attack in Itamar Village

By -
The funeral took place yesterday afternoon at 1:30pm in Givat Shaul, Jerusalem. Thousands of mourners came from all parts of the country to pay their last respects to this courageous family. 
Udi and Ruti Fogel and three of their six children who were viscously murdered on Friday night. 
There were thousands of people from all over the country, filling the cemetery as shown here by David Orbach who studied   with Ruti's father, Rabbi Ben Ishay who teaches the wonderful books of the Maharal from Prague. The eulogies were very moving, with Rabbi Israel Meir Lau, Rabbi Metsger, President of the Knesseth Ruby Rivlin, Deputy Prime Minister Moshe Ayalon, Rabbi Yehudah Ben Ishay, the brothers of Ruti Fogel and friends of the family. 
May the People of Israel know no more sorrow!

I don't usually post pictures of churches on this blog, but I have seen this from afar many times.  When you are driving to the Hadassah Ein Kerem hospital, this view keeps popping up so you might get distracted by the view.  You might wonder about the golden dome church and why it is up there? Well this link:  http://www.biblewalks.com/Sites/RussianEinKerem.html   Will tell you all about it. If you want to go to visit, remember that visitors are not allowed inside the church, but the view and the exterior might be enough to justify the trip. Since you have to go into the Hadassah Hosiptal complex, you will have to pay the parking fee for the hospital, so don't be surprised. Have a good trip! Rachael Alice
