September 27, 2011

I am often struck by the ways that so many people’s lives intertwine. Last night we were honored to attend the bat mitzvah of our dear friends’ daughter at Kibbutz Tirat Tzvi (two hours from our home). Moshe and Chaviva Speter were part of the Torah Mitzion Kollel in Washington D.C. while we lived there.… Read More Challah, Health & The Bat Mitzvah Girl
