A grassroots campaign initiated by a group of Shluchim has people pledging to put Tefillin on 10,000 people by Thursday evening.
Started by Rabbi Yisroel Deren, the project is in the merit of Sholom Mordechai Rubashkin, who will be sentenced in Iowa on Thursday.
2,000 pledges were already recorded on the website set up for the campaign, www.tefillin.weebly.com, by Tuesday night.
“It is our hope and prayer that the performance of all of these mitzvahs will help bring blessings and success which are above the laws of nature,” the website states, “and redemption for Sholom Mordechai Rubashkin.”
The website is open to anyone who wishes to volunteer to take upon himself to lay tefillin with any number of yidden from now until Thursday night.
To join and pledge, go to www.tefillin.weebly.com.

“…one nation, under G-d, with liberty and justice for all?”
Let’s get together! Someone prominent down there has to organize a million man march in Washington. We must get on every major news station and newspaper immediately! This is an absurd, senseless spiritual beating of someone totally innocent modern Dreyfuss affair! Shocked is not the word. I would love to spit in the judge’s face.
