Opening
A group of teens visiting from America. Some had never put on tefillin before, some had no Idea what they are, surely, they had no idea what Hashem wants of us. One of them said, "I think my father put these on one time."
What you see them doing in the picture is almost certainly the first time they talked to Hashem in their lives. Talking to Hashem opens their hearts. It opens the door for them to want to learn what it means to be a Jew, to want to make a Jewish family, to pray for the Redemption….
Thank G-d they come here… and thank G-d we are here to try to help them.
