Our First All-School Tefillah

Dear Friends of Gefen and Tamar,

This morning we had our first all-school Tefillah of the year. We typically have all-school Tefillah on Rosh Chodesh (the first day of a new month); today is the first day of Heshvan. This morning was fun for all MWJDS students, but it was particularly special for our class because five fourth graders read from the torah. All the fourth graders came together to lead the school in Ahavah Rabbah. And third graders led the school in Ashrei.

Here is a video Hadass reading from the torah! I attempted to take video footage of all the students reading from the torah, but unfortunately, the others did not come out.

Jake helped Rav-Hazzan dress the torah when it was time to put it away. 

 It was fun to have some parents from the Gefen/Tamar class join us to pray this morning. We hope you will all consider joining us for an all-school Tefillah in the future.

Best,
Hamorah Eliza
