Eitan and Elikim - We are waiting for you at home
Eitan Mor and Elyakim Liebman were security guards at the infamous party in Reim, where they were kidnapped by Hamas terrorists.
The two childhood friends volunteered together at Haverim L'Refuah. These two beautiful souls volunteered with our special children, bringing them light and joy and giving of themselves for the sake of others.
Instead of protecting themselves at the party, they rescued and helped others, until they too were taken.
We pray for the speedy return of Elyakim and Eitan and of all those kidnapped and missing.
Captain Uri Shani, May His Memory Be Blessed
Uri fought bravely and prevented a massacre at the Kissufim military outpost. He eliminated 35 terrorists and protected his soldiers and friends at the base with his life. In his short life, Uri managed to influence the lives of many. In his youth, he was active in Kiryat Arba youth organization and volunteered at Haverim L'Refuah.
He loved his country, he loved the Torah, he loved people and he gave his life in the defense of Eretz Israel.

Moshe and his son Liad were killed while defending our home.
