Thousands of soldiers who were relocated to the northern border of Israel due to rocket fire from Lebanon needed somewhere to stay. Some soldiers were housed in a children's nursery, while others were fortunate enough to find a family willing to let them stay in their home. The soldiers started a Paybox account to help reimburse their hosts for the costs of their stay. As Rosh Hashanah approached, the soldiers realized there was no challah for the holiday, but they were resourceful enough to bake their own using ingredients they were able to procure. Despite the inconvenience and the mess, the family hosting the soldiers feels honored and hopeful for the future.
