Meet Yahel
Her Background
Yahel Levy was born in Cameroon, and grew up in the Ivory Coast, West Africa.
​
Her parents are simple Jews, with long lineages, from Morocco. Her grandfather was one of the committed students and helpers of the famous and holy Rav Chaim Pinto from Morocco, who passed down a lot of beautiful and important torah teachings to his children, to her, her children, and so on.
The African, Jewish culture holds a very deep place in Yahel's heart, and her roots. There's something incredibly special about Moroccan and African Jewry, that is hard to put to words, but easy to feel, through Yahel's paintings.
​
Yahel is the mother of five beautiful children, and has helped many, many other children along her journey, as if they were her own. Yahel is known for her generous heart, her murals and paintings all over the city of Tzfat, and her vibrant and warm home.
​
Yahel now lives in Tzfat, Israel, where she has been enjoying the deepest connection back to the Jewish homeland, and all the gifts that come along with being home again.
Her Vision
Everyone that knows Yahel, knows her deepest desire and vision is that of peace within families, peace within our nation, and peace within our global world. Yahel's vision is a vision of the Geulah-- the ultimate redemption, where hate and rude-ness is a figment of the past, and love and kindness rule the heart of every one, for all time.
​
A world of only love, and honesty.
Of treating each other right and fairly.
Of constant celebration, joy and community.
​
A world where Mashiach is revealed; and where evil is completely destroyed off the face of our world. May it be speedily in our days, Amen.
