B’nai B’rith Canada is once again sponsoring the Jerusalem Pavilion at this year’s International Caravan an behalf of the entire Jewish community in Toronto. According to Charlie Goldlust, co-chairman of the Jerusalem Pavilion over 300 B’nai B’rith volunteers will work together to coordinate the Pavilion. This year one of the most exciting events of the Caravan which runs through Friday, is a rare replica of the 2,000 year old Dead Sea Scrolls, found by a Bedouin in a cave near the ruins of Qumran in 1947, will be featured at the Jerusalem Pavilion.
