The new cycle of Kitzur Shulchan Aruch Yomi began just two days ago–24 Tishrei!  It would be very easy to catch up! Students of the incredible One-Year Program actually study and complete the entire Kitzur Shulchan Aruch in by studying only several paragraphs a day.  As we have noted in the past, the Chofetz Chaim writes that one can fulfill the words “Vehagisa Bo Yomam VaLayla” by learning Halacha in the morning and Halachos in the evening.  With so many wonderful English translations of the Kitzur, it is truly a great and relatively easy opportunity to review a vast amount of Halachos over the coming year, with an investment of only several minutes per day.   Seize the Opportunity!  For calendars,click here >>
