Bnei Akiva ~ בני עקיבא
Bnei Akiva is a worldwide Zionist youth movement that focuses on the Land of Israel and the Torah. Darchei Noam hosts one of more than 100 snifim (Bnei Akiva gatherings) across 37 countries. Open to students (chanichim) in grades 1 - 8, our snifim provide an opportunity to learn about Israel, Zionism, the weekly Parsha, and Judaism through games, songs, and other activities. Our Bnei Akiva snif generally meets on Shabbat for an hour and a half every other week. High schoolers from our community lead each meeting, working with our Bnot Sherut from Israel, Klil-Or and Oriya.
