Check Out Our New Torah Readers!

Dear Friends of Gefen and Tamar, 

Happy Rosh Chodesh! This morning at all-school Tefillah, several students in Gefen and Tamar read from the torah for the first time. Congratulations to Melanie, Amanda M, Amanda S, Jonathan, Hannah, Elliana C, Aiden, Justin, Alyssa, Maayan and Talia! You rocked it!

Meg and Avia led this morning's service

Melanie reads from the torah

Justin and Aiden read from the torah

Because we had so many new torah readers, we all recited the Shehecheyanu blessing at the end of the service. The Shehecheyanu is a prayer said to celebrate "firsts" and special occasions.

Kol Hakavod to our new torah readers!

Best,
Hamorah Eliza
