Kibbutz Ramat Rachel and its Missionary Congresses

B"H

Kibbutz Ramat Rachel is a wealthy Kibbutz which already says a lot. Most Kibbutzim are deeply in debts and can hardly pay their bills although productivity is still very high. Today their majority is facing disastrous problems and more and more high qualified people, especially the youth, are leaving the Kibbutz.

However, Ramat Rachel, located in the city of Jerusalem (near Talpiot) is wealthy because the members found a great income source. They built a huge congress hall which is also available for wedding celebrations. And as Ramat Rachel is nice and rich, it is surrounded by plenty of nature.

But the congress hall and further facilities are not only available for weddings. Obviously the Kibbutz has found great customers paying lots of cash. For at least more than two years it has been going on now, and the Israeli anti - missionary organisation Yad Le' Achim is running ads against going to Ramat Rachel. At least as long as the Kibbutz rents out its facilities to Christian missionary organizations as well as for messianic congresses.

Apparently the Kibbutz does nothing to stop its activities due to money reasons. Cash versus Judaism. And cash seems to be more important.
