Channel 14 correspondent says moving to the U.S. deepened her religious observance

Channel 14 U.S. correspondent Libi Alon shared on social media that her move from Israel has made her more religious and closer to Judaism. She wrote that since moving to the United States, she has “gotten a little more observant” and at one point kept Shabbat, which she said she “really loved” and enjoyed מאוד מאוד.

Alon said she had recently moved into a new apartment and decided to do something she had never done before: ask a Chabad emissary named Aria to come and make her kitchen kosher. “I am really, really, really excited about it,” she wrote.

She later posted footage of the koshering process, showing the Chabad emissary pouring hot water over the kitchen counter. In a lighthearted comment, she asked, “Now are you also washing my whole kitchen?” After the visit, the emissary also affixed a mezuzah on her doorframe.

Alon closed the post by declaring, “Now it is official, a kosher Jewish home.”
