Rhode Island’s newest community shlichah Gaya officially met the Jewish community at an event on Sept. 11 at the Dwares Jewish Community Center in Providence. At the gathering, participants were put to the test with Rhode Island trivia questions created by Gaya as well as questions about Gaya. Flavored popcorn was enjoyed by everyone. Gaya, who most recently lived in Tel Aviv, will bring a taste of Israel to area schools, synagogues and other community gatherings around Rhode Island for the next two years as part of the program sponsored by the Jewish Agency for Israel and the Jewish Alliance of Greater Rhode Island.
