Sunday, January 9th, fathers and men associated with Bais Rivkah joined in the beginning of the writing of a brand Sefer Torah.
The men enjoyed a Lchaim, a chance to write in the brand new Torah, as well as the chance to be part of a raffle for a brand new Borsalino hat sponsored by Borsalino Crown Heights. Mazal tov to Mendel Stolik on winning the raffle.
40 years ago the Rebbe instructed Bais Rivkah to write a Sefer Torah, instructing that families should buy letters, uniting all those who are connected to Bais Rivkah worldwide. Through buying a letter, the Rebbe stated, one becomes an automatic supporter and promoter of the incredible unity the Torah will bring.
As people began buying letters, a Duch was sent to the Rebbe that 1,000 letters have been purchased for the Bais Rivkah Sefer Torah. The Rebbe said that this number must be intensified. Within two and a half months of this announcement, 50,000 letters were purchased!
There are 7 Torahs for Bais Rivkah written to date. Now, the school will begin writing the 8th Torah, celebrating 80 years since Bais Rivkah was established by the Frierdiker Rebbe.
Be a part of this special source of Bracha and show your support for Bais Rivkah by buying letters for your family at bethrivkah.edu/sefertorah
