Which Israeli consulate serves Anaheim
San Francisco and Los Angeles share California between them; the California page sets out both pages’ wording.
The center of Anaheim lies in congressional district 46. San Francisco lists “Districts 1-22” (source), which we take to mean those districts, so Anaheim stays with Los Angeles by our reading.
Driving from Anaheim takes about 52 min for 40 miles without traffic; the straight-line distance is 35 miles.
Los Angeles keeps the same clock as Anaheim, so its office hours need no conversion.

U.S. birth and marriage papers from Anaheim for an Israeli mission
Order the original birth certificate of a child born in Anaheim from the California Department of Public Health’s Vital Records office, in Sacramento (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records).
The mission’s birth notice asks for it (the mission’s birth notice page), and the California page lists the fee.
For a marriage in Orange County, the county of Anaheim, the CDC’s directory for California sends requests to the Orange County Recorder (or its Clerk, for a confidential marriage) (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records); the mission asks for the certificate with an apostille.
A public document from California goes to Israel with an apostille from the California Secretary of State (HCCH list); Israel and the U.S. are both parties to the Hague Convention, which Israel joined in 1978.
