Busloads of Jews make midnight excursions into Shechem to pray at the Biblical site of Kever Yosef. Three to five buses are escorted into the compound by the IDF and as they return, another three to five buses are entering. These rotating excursions of intermittent travel take place under the cover of dark since Jews are in danger of assaults, attacks and even murder when entering Shechem in daylight.
Brave religious Jews, men & women, young & old, have taken upon themselves a mantle of prayer vigilance at Kever Yosef. This particular trip was sponsored by Women for Israel's Tomorrow to stand with the diligent worshipers who are having to prove to the government that this Biblical site is of great significance to Jews, and that they should be allowed to visit any time of day.
Thanks to our young IDF soldiers, our guardians of the night, for their courageous endeavors to secure our protection into such volatile territory. May the God of Israel be your shield and protector!
