    Benny Barak has made a pledge in honor of his beloved adopted sister-in-law, Ilana Erhmann, who graduated from the Circlework Training in September 2009 and is now leading circles for Jewish and Arab women in Israel.

    Thanks for your generosity ...

    ... we've reached $3,000! With only $1,000 to go and 18 days to go, we are increasingly hopeful that we will reach our goal of $4,000 to fund the first women's Circlework retreat in Bethlehem. We are so grateful to all of you who have supported this groundbreaking project thus far.
