ACHDUT IN THE TORAH WORLD

The Gerrer Rebbe in Har Etzion

From time to time we are privileged to host leading rabbinic figures in the beit midrash.We were pleased to host the head of the "Penei Menachem" (Ger) yeshiva, Rabbi Shaul Alter Shlit"a. Rabbi Alter gave a talk on the subject of God's providence with reference to contemporary reality. He added words of eulogy for his student Eitan Rosenzweig HY"d, of Yishuv Alon Shevut, who fell in battle on November 22nd.

Rav Ezra Bick, who initiated the meeting, began by talking about the importance of unity and dialogue in the Torah world, especially these days. Rosh Hayeshiva Harav Ya'akov Medan, concluded with words of blessing, and praised Rabbi Alter who continues the tradition of Ger Hasidism for generations, which founded the spiritual world on the basis of scholarship and innovations in Shas.

Gush Shabbaton Nov2023 519

Making the decision to have The Annual Gush Alumni Shabbaton was not easy. It was extremely difficult for Gush Staff to leave Eretz Yisrael at this time. Yet, so many Gush Alumni reached out and so many are under pressure that this Gush Shabbaton felt more important than ever. 

We are a family. 

Sometimes the Home Front is a distance away but being together for Shabbat in thought, prayer and Torah Study is a true blessing. Thanking all those who joined, those who planned and coordinated and  Congregation Bnai Yeshurun for hosting.

great staff at work2 267
 
The Yeshiva runs on Talmud Torah, Tefilla, Middot Tovot, and Maasim Tovim. These days - we are all working that much harder to keep it all running. We wanted to highlight some 'Ovdei HaYeshiva' starting with Ovdei HaMitbach. These Guys are serving up meals to Yeshiva talmidim, Rabbeim and staff along with Evacuees from Kiriyat Shemone, Refugees from Kfar Maimon, an IDF unit serving in the area, elderly residents of Alon Shevut whose support system have been drafted, and are providing school meals including meals for children whose parents are currently serving and protecting.    
Oh, and this Shabbat, they prepared a Simcha for a Bar Mitzvah Boy - an evacuee from Kiriyat Shemone sheltering safely with his family in the Yeshiva dorms - whose father is currently serving and protecting. Some of them have been drafted and are serving on Emergency Response Teams. They show up in the kitchen and then leave to do their shifts.   All have family who are currently serving and protecting. Thanking them for showing up to work and working hard - every day - during these difficult times - way beyond the call of duty.
