Sukkot, the Jewish Festival of Tabernacles, is a time of remembrance, hospitality, and gathering.
During Sukkot 2026, international visitors participated in activities in Israel's Galilee connected with The Faithful Galileans and its Ambassador Academy initiative.
According to an October 4 announcement, the activities brought visitors closer to the people, history, and everyday realities of Israel.
For many supporters, visiting Israel provides something that photographs and news reports cannot fully convey: an opportunity to encounter communities and understand the country through personal experience.

The Faithful Galileans' Ambassador Academy is designed to help international supporters deepen their understanding of Israel through education, cultural encounters, and practical participation.
Visitors have opportunities to learn about Jewish history, meet local communities, and engage in activities that connect international friendship with meaningful service.
Such experiences can also influence how participants speak about Israel when they return home.
Rather than relying solely on headlines, visitors can share what they have personally learned, while recognizing that a short visit offers only one perspective on a complex society.
