Arutz Sheva TV met the Chai-Lifeline “Wish at the Wall 2011″ trip as they visited the city of Bnei Brak. The group came to meet Maran Rav Chaim Kanievsky and Rebbetzin Batsheva Kanievsky to receive their brachos for health and well-being.
The “Wish at the Wall” trips bring to Israel children who could not get to Israel any other way.
Arutz Sheva met last year’s group at the Kosel. That was a group of children who were dealing or had dealt with cancer along with their parents.
This year’s trip is for teens coping with serious chronic, and sometimes fatal illnesses. These young men and women are determined to overcome physical limitations and experience all that Israel has to offer. They are accompanied by a parent and ChaiLifeline’s medical staff.
After they were received happily at the airport by the staff of the trip, the group set out to a large variety of locations throughout Israel including - the Old City of Yerushalayim, Masada, Ein Gedi, the Knesset, northern Israel and the city of Bnei Brak. During the tour the young boys and girls met rabbonim, soldiers, politicians and others.
