This was the first time for some of the priests to visit the renovated kehilla home.

In addition the following subjects were also discussed:

- the financial report for 2014. The priests have agreed that much energy must be invested in fundraising.

- the link between the local Hebrew speaking Catholics and the migrant Catholic communities.

- preparations for Easter

- preparations for the Central Committee of the kehillot meeting in May.
