"During the time we were on a mission in the United States," says journalist Sivan Rahav Meir, "I saw how many Jews there are connected here. In prayers, in the Psalms, in good deeds there - that will have a positive effect here. "This is an opportunity for us to connect to their pulse for a moment, and to share with them from here in sorrow."

Rahav Meir details: Liel Namdar, 15, from New York, was killed in a car accident on Saturday night. The communities in Five Towns and Great Nack are mourning. Liel was a friend of our daughter. She attended TAG High School and that night returned from a meeting in New York with Sternberg summer camp graduates when the vehicle of a drunk driver staying illegally in the United States collided with a vehicle she was traveling in with friends. Her funeral took place here in Jerusalem. The American community of Jerusalem showed up In the crowd late at night on Mount of Beatitudes, along with hundreds of young men and women who came to study here for a year.Since the funeral, in a sort of spontaneous operation, thousands of people began doing special things to uplift the soul of Liel Dina Bat Ephraim: The taxi for passers-by in Jewish neighborhoods there. "

Two small-big stories about Liel accompany this week, both of which took place in the last minutes of her life:

• At the end of the meeting with her friends on Saturday night, before the girls got in the car, it started to rain.

All the girls went inside the hall.

Only Liel pulled two girlfriends out and told them, "Let's dance in the rain!".

This is her latest video, dancing in the rain with friends, happy as always, taking advantage of the moment.

In the last text message she sent, just seconds before the accident, she wrote to her friend: "Can you remind me to say 'Hear Israel' tonight?".

Her friends later said that she had always remembered Liel.

Apparently this was her way of reminding this company to say "Hear Israel" herself, without hurting her.

Condolences to parents Effie and Maya, and to the brothers - Natalie, Emanuel Winon.

Good news from Jerusalem.
