The Masmidei HaSiyum program is back. Now more than ever, we need the extra zechusim from the limud haTorah of our tinokos shel beis raban. During this uncertain time, when so many yeshivos are closing, we are restarting the Masmidei HaSiyum program.
This program will begin today, Monday, March 16th. Every few hours, new winners will be announced in order to keep the momentum strong, and there will be exciting weekly raffles as well. There will be the added ability on our hotline for Rebbeim to post an audio recording that will be linked to the PIN numbers of his class. The boys will then be able to listen to a short shiur on Chumash/Mishnayos/Gemara, and enter the learning they’ve just listened to in order to earn tickets.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Thursday ordered most schools in the country closed as a precaution against coronavirus, and called for the formation of an emergency national unity government.
Primary and secondary schools, with some exceptions such as special education programs, would be closed, he said.
“We are altering our internal routine in order to handle an outside threat, the threat of the virus,” Netanyahu said in remarks broadcast live.
The right-wing Likud leader, whose tenure is still in doubt after three inconclusive elections in less than a year, also called for an emergency national unity government.

Prior to Yom Kippur, we make all types of kabbalos to better ourselves and help us achieve a positive outcome in our yearly judgment. Our very lives depend on it.
Purim provides an even greater opportunity. Chazak reveal that Yom Ki’Purim is a day that is “like Purim”. This means that Purim is the ultimate day of prayer, even greater than Yom Kippur. With a firm commitment to Stop The Talking In Shul, we can effect change and facilitate yeshuos and refuos for all of Klal Yisroel!
Watch this MUST SEE video and on Purim and beyond you will soar to the greatest of heights.

Discovery: Ancient Kabbalistic sword which was in the possession of the holy gaon Rabbi Hillel Lichtenstein of Kolomyya, one of the greatest disciples of the Chatam Sofer, regarding whom the verse “Kodesh Hillulim L’Hashem” was stated (Hillulim=Hillel). He was admired by the other rabbinic leaders of his generation as well, and Rabbi Chaim of Sanz stated regarding him: “Anyone who questions him, it is as if he is questioning the Divine Presence.” The sword was passed on from Rabbi Hillel of Kolomyya to his son-in-law, the author of Lev Ivri, Rabbi Akiva Yosef Schlesinger, who was a disciple of the Ktav Sofer and of the Maharam Schick, and one of the leading rabbis of Hungary and of Jerusalem. The sword bears an ivory handle with a metal blade engraved with pure gold letters.
