  1. Photos and articles of the work of Gabriel Project Mumbai always blow me away! The volunteers are obviously having fun doing the magical work of teaching, visiting the elderly, feeding the needy, celebrating a Jewish or Hindu festival and always doing it all with love!
    May GPM continue to light up the work started by Gabriel and Rivka Holzberg,
    aleihem haShalom, who were the beginners of the angelic work done in Mumbai and continued still today by the volunteers, visitors and steady team under the guidance of Jacob Sztokman and his helpers. May they continue to go from strength to strength!
