...is Tana Zarelli.
She is a self -starter who is currently
involved in something she didn’tknow anything about until 2006. At that time, she attended a conference on American and Israelirelationships. She learned muchabout the Land, the Culture andthe Arab-Israeli Conflict.
Her eyes were opened and shequestioned why she didn’t know any of this information. Afterward, Tani felt a call to begin to educatethe average American person likeherself about Israel and what shehad just learned.
So in 2007, she embarked on herfirst fact-finding trip to Israel.Shortly afterward, she hosted thefirst US “ConvergenceConference,” designed to educate Americans about the need for a strong relationship between America and Israel as well as tohelp them understand the Conflict.Members of the Israeli
Government, including then-Prime
Minister Netanyahu, spoke. Tani
continues to sponsor the US-Israeli
Convergence Conference and it
remains her driving force.
In 2008, Tani took her first groupto Israel, which she continues to do
regularly. She tailors her tours for
the participants-- whether the focus
is Education, Faith,
Politics or Health Care, she makessure to take participants on tours
of Jerusalem and other cities where
they experience the vibrant life of
Israel. Tani sees lives changed over
and over. Her passion is to see
people connect to the Land and
People of Israel, preparing them tocome back and be a spokesperson
for Israel. Tani also has established
unique relationships where she can
assist business leaders in finding
new opportunities to bring
economic success to both the US &
Israel.You can learn more about Tani Zarelli at her website,

Government exists to
protect us from each
other. Where government
has gone beyond its limits
is in deciding to protect
us from ourselves.
