This past Tuesday, Vov Tishrei, Bais Rivkah High School celebrated the Yartzeit of Rebbetzin Chana by dedicating numerous special programs to honor the Mitzvos relating to her name.
The day began by davening along with a recording of the Rebbe’s davening. Then, the girls watched an inspirational video of Rebbetzin Chana, with brilliant footage and information about her life. Following this, they joined workshops discussing the Mesiras Nefesh of Rebbetzin Chana and the application of Mesiras Nefesh in our lives.
The lunchroom was decorated with pink tablecloths and rose petals, and pictures of Rebbetzin Chana were placed around as centerpieces.
A special event was a mega challah baking class with Rabbanit Eliyashiv. She and her team of five taught the students all about the kabbalah behind the components of challah. Each ingredient represents something far greater than its physical substance.
The girls learned about the holiness in each step of the process of Challah baking, and the Brachos that we draw down at that time.
Rabbanit Eliyashiv helped create a spiritual, yet real, atmosphere in the school’s lunchroom, as the girls listened, poured, kneaded and prayed.
The power vibrated through each girl as each raised Hashem’s piece of challah, and recited the blessing in unison. Every girl in BRHS walked home with white, rising challah dough. The leftover dough was baked and given as Tzedaka to the seudos of guests on Erev Yom Kippur.
“Rebbetzin Chana is the Rebbe’s mother,” said a student. “At the end of this incredibel day, we were humbled with the pride of being the granddaughters of Rebbetzin Chana.”
Wishing all those who arranged this program, as well as all the teachers and faculty members of Bais Rivkah, a gmar chasima tova and an incredible thank you.
