Itai Lavi is the current Shaliach for the Jewish and Tulsa community.
He has proven himself as an outstanding emmissary for the state of Israel and has put his mark on the Shaliach program in Tulsa.

The Shaliach program meets the interest of both Jews and non-Jews about Israel through a variety of outreach efforts.

• Lectures and presentations in churches, civic organizations, universities, public and private schools throughout Oklahoma.
• Teaching courses at the Institute of Adult Jewish Studies and Midrasha.
• Making presentations in the Jewish community, including Congregation B'nai Emmunah, Temple Israel, and the CSJCC's Retired Men's Club.
• Participating in special events, most notably, ShalomFest, KidsWorld, and the International Fair at Tulsa Community College.
• Festival Israel - an ambitious way for Tulsa to mark Israeli Memorial Day (Yom Hazikaron) and Israel's Independence Day (Yom Ha-Atzmaut). More than 2000 Jewish and non-Jewish Tulsans come to Zarrow Campus to commemorate those who gave their lives in defense of Israel, and then to celebrate her independence during an afternoon of food, culture, entertainment, and activities.
• Numerous cultural and educational community events. These include the Israeli Scholar-in-Residence program.
