(April 2, 2025) Kibbutz Ma'oz Tzur has seen a lot of firsts since its founding almost a year and half ago. The first Hannuka was celebrated late 2023, resulting in the name being given to it. It was followed by Purim, Pesach, Rosh HaShana and Succot not withstanding the others like fastings. Now, we have the very first wedding of a young B'nei Menashe couple, Yosef and Leah that took place on Sunday, 30th March 2025. What makes this even more special is that they are both from Kibbutz Ma'oz Tzur! Our newsletter has reliably learnt that they were about a 150 plus guests in attendance. There were representatives from all the B'nei Menashe communities around Lamka who attended the wedding and the feast that followed. The only exception were those who could not attend, like Kangpokpi and Moreh, due to travel restrictions following the civil war that arose since 3rd May 2023. Shem Haokip of Ma'oz Tzur, who is also the the chairman of the synagogue with Yitzhak Singson BMC Executive member of Sijang made the arrangements for the wedding and Avichail Manchong, Religious Secretary of BMC India, conducted the wedding. The 'Sheva Brachot' was recited, in turns, by members of the families from the bride and groom. Following the ceremony, the happy couple were showered with gifts by the guests and merry making added to it when the all began to break into a dance. It concluded with a meal prepared by the Ma'oz Tzur team and enjoyed by all! May we merit to have more simchas like this! Mazal Tov to the newly wedded couple!
