(more…)

Our little corner of the web is starting to turn some heads!  This past week there was an article about the start of our Sefer Torah in HaModia, a national Jewish paper.  Additionally, other blogs and webzines have become interested in our site.

See the recent article about us posted here:

Please keep spreading the word about the kind of work that we are doing here – the more people that know about it, the better!

Tomorrow I will post the article from HaModia.

Last Wednesday evening, June 24, 2009, at the home of Rabbi Avrohom Bloomenstiel, Congregation Toras Chaim began the writing of what will be our first sefer Torah. Rabbi Bloomenstiel  (below) describes the custom of having a small L’Chaim in celebration of the beginning of the writing.

Watch the video of Rabbi Bloomenstiel write the first letter of the Torah.
