Newsletter  No. 302/03/2008
Dear Friends,
We are pleased to send you the third issue of the newsletter of the International Center for Tzfat Kabbalah.
Since our last newsletter, many more recipients have been added to our newsletter circulation list, and our international virtual community is growing.
The last month was blessed with intensive work at the visitors’ center and increased activities for the residents of the 'Tzahar' region, as reported in the articles. This month we also celebrated the major holiday of the Kabbalah, Lag Ba’omer, with a fascinating evening of lectures on the Kabbalah.
We are delighted to announce that due to the vast interest and demand, we have decided to hold monthly or bi-monthly Kabbalah lecture evenings.
We will hold a week of Kabbalah study and experience between 27.7 -2.8.08.
To those interested – be sure to register early to secure a place!!

Best wishes for a healthy and happy summer,

Eyal Riess and the staff of
