Ateret Cohanim marked Yom Yerushalayim with its annual New York dinner held this past Tuesday, June 4, at Hewlett Harbor’s stunning The Seawane Club with tables of local Jewish supporters. Widely recognized as Yerushalayim’s shield, Ateret Cohanim continues its mission born 44 years ago to strengthen Jewish roots around the Torah citadels that dot the Old City in a pioneering effort to revitalize Jewish life by families establishing their homes there. Strolling through the modern-day Moslem and Christian Quarters, one finds budding Jewish life on its streets once again, namely in the communities of Abu Tor, Kfar HaShiloach/HaTeimanim, Maaleh HaZeitim, and Kidmat Zion. Ateret Cohanim, nearly single-handedly, has reinvigorated Torah on land barren of its loftiness for some 2,000 years.
