“Thank you for giving us the opportunity to get to know Israel Police as we do. You escorted our children a long way and today, we all shed tears of excitement at the bar mitzvah ceremony at the Kosel” stated the principal of the HaArazim School in the presence of the Jerusalem Police Chief, Kosel Rav Rabbi Shmuel Rabinowitz Shlita and senior regional commanders.

Police of the Merchav David district have been maintaining a relationship for a year, which includes weekly visits, activities, tours and other joint actions. In most cases, the students come to the police station, but at times, the reverse is true.

As they boys reach bar mitzvah police took the initiative to arrange the Kosel ceremony. Rabbi Rabinowitz showered them with brachos and praised the program which endears police to the students.
