Special Visitors

The Keshet class was honored today to have a visit from Rabbi Jay and the Torah. Simchat Torah is a wonderful time for children to begin learning about the Torah; for our youngest children, the visit was a close-up examination of the physical aspects of the Torah. We learned about the beautiful "clothes" of the Torah, that we can use the yad to guide our reading, that we do not touch the writing with our hands, and that we can look forward to a lifetime of Jewish learning through the stories that the Torah brings us. Thank you, Rabbi Jay, for spending time with us and inviting us to begin this learning that never ends.
