The Magen David Synagogue was Inaugurated in the Magen David Adom Headquarters Building in Or Yehuda

On Tuesday, a synagogue was dedicated at Magen David Adom’s Headquarters in Or Yehuda. The new synagogue was named "Magen David" and was built thanks to a donation from Dr. Bruno and his wife Mrs. Aliza Lellouche from Nice and Paris in France through the MDA Friends Society in France.

The inauguration ceremony of the synagogue was held in accordance with the guidelines of the Ministry of Health and with the participation of the Chief Rabbi of Jerusalem, Rabbi Shlomo Moshe Amar who set the synagogue mezuzah and blessed "May you always be blessed and healthy and successful. Amen "

Rabbi Shlomo Moshe Amar wrote the first verse in a new Torah which will be added to the synagogue and added: “It is a very special day that Magen David Adom not only has a new building, but is dedicating it by placing a mezuza on the synagogue door. You work with immense dedication to reach all who need your services wherever they may be. When a physician or a paramedic or any other medical professional does their job should be blessed by God. May God be with you and bless you.”

MDA Director General, Eli Bin: "We thank the Chief Rabbi of Jerusalem, Rabbi Shlomo Moshe Amar, who honored us by dedicating the synagogue, and thank the Lellouche family of France for their generous and exciting donation to the organization's employees and volunteers. The organization - which is currently fighting around the clock with the corona virus. "

The Lellouche family, veteran MDA donors who helped set up stations, purchase ambulances and intensive care vehicles, said excitedly: "We are happy to strengthen our alliance with Magen David Adom, by participating in the construction of the synagogue, which takes care of our souls and thoughts. This is a place of study and prayer for Magen David Adom teams, who take care of our lives in Israel. "
