Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! From Metropolitan United Church and MET Young Adults Community✨. We planted a new outdoor Christmas Tree near the Church entrance, marking a new tradition. Rev. Jason gave blessings as we lit the tree. Adi and MET Young Adults Community organized a stunning visual display (Rev. Jason presentation) on the walls and roof!, lit the tower, and welcomed neighbors to join in the festive cheer.

Rev. Jason: “How do we keep our balance? One word!- Tradition Traditiooon Tradiiition! 🙏🏻✨

A lot of you have been asking: “How did you end up in North America?”
Here’s the short version of my journey 👇
After studying at Epic Flight Academy, I realized a full-time pilot career wasn’t for me. So in 2018, I moved to New York City — Manhattan — with my then-wife, arriving as an investor. I founded THEGRACENYC INC., a luxury nail art studio that quickly became a go-to for international celebrities, top models, and the fashion world.
We were the first to bring real diamonds to nail designs — think high-end, one-of-a-kind pieces for runways and red carpets. Collaborated with icons like Tom Ford, Victoria’s Secret, ABC Studios, NYFW, Fashion on Mingle, Styleseat, NYC Best Friends Charity association Miss Universe and Eurovision(in Israel) and more.
I also got deeply involved in the Lower East Side Jewish community and Upper East Side Christian circles as well visiting my loved once in Holly Land and come to Jerusalem where Western wall whisper sacred spiritual things — donating, celebrating holidays, and joining prayers.
Then COVID hit hard, NYC shut down completely… so in 2022, I made the move to Toronto, where I’ve been building new ventures ever since.
Slide left for some epic NYC views and a glimpse of the journey ✨
Life’s about daring to pivot and keep moving forward. Grateful for every chapter.
