Happy New Year from LDVDF 💙
If you’re craving more joy, meaning, and connection this year, we made something simple, shareable, and genuinely doable:
Jewish Joy Bingo is the gameboard.
The 10 Jewish Joy Resolutions are the deeper path.
This is for every Jewish community and journey—Sephardi, Mizrahi, Ashkenazi, Beta Israel, Bene Israel, Bukharian, Persian, Kurdish, Yemenite, Syrian, Moroccan, Romaniote, Italkim, mixed heritage, Jewish-by-choice, and more.
