Telshe Yeshiva Elul Yarchei Kallah 5773

Leave a Comment

Aware of its responsibility as the wellspring of Torah and Yiras Shomayim for the entire Cleveland Jewish community, Telshe Yeshiva has created forums for learning throughout the neighborhoods. Our monthly “Lunch & Learn” sessions, held in downtown Cleveland and in Commerce Park in Beachwood, bring a refreshing injection of Torah into the workday, while other shiurim provide the opportunity to meet and connect with the Roshei HaYeshiva and Rebbeim of Telshe. Thus, in conjunction with Agudath Israel of Cleveland, the Yeshiva will host an Elul Yarchei Kallah day of learning on Labor Day, Monday, September 2. You are invited to come and spend your morning together with us, in Elul, within the walls of the Telshe Beis Hamedrash and experience Torah learning in this most holy and auspicious time of the year.

I never live up to my New Year’s resolutions. So this Rosh Hashanah, why bother trying? By  Rebbetzin Feige Twerski.

Dear Rebbetzin Twerski,

Every year Rosh Hashanah comes around and I commit to changing something, and by the year’s end, I see I’m the same person. It’s hard to take myself seriously anymore and muster up the commitment to try to change again this year. How can I really make this year different?

shofar(Hakhel)

HaRav Mattisyahu Salomon, Shlita, recently gave an essential Shiur to explain the extreme significance of the period we are in. Elul is not a time period that was discovered 200 years ago, 500 years ago or even 1,000 years ago. Rather, it was Moshe Rabbeinu himself who demonstrated the power of Elul to us, as through his Tefillos during this time he was able to bring the Luchos Sheniyos and the Torah back to this world. HaRav Salomon brings from HaRav Aharon Kotler, Z’tl, that people  mistakenly believe that when we exclaim on the night of Yom Kippur “VaYomer Hashem Salachti Kedvarecha”–that we are referring to the Tefillos that we are about to begin reciting on Yom Kippur. However, it is really the process of our Tefillos over the 40 days from Rosh Chodesh Elul that bring about our forgiveness on Yom Kippur.

A rate increase in special assessments charged for street lighting and road repairs has some residents questioning city hall.

The city since 1978 has assessed fees to residents’ property taxes to pay for lighting and repairs. This year, City Council passed a rate increase, from $1.80 to $2 per foot of street frontage. The new rate will be in effect for three years, which will mean an additional $8-$10 per property owner, said Finance Director Tom Raguz.

Coming to Cleveland … Gali’s Couture Wigs

GalisWigs

With gratitude to Hashem, we debut our highly-anticipated line of Gali’s Couture Wigs. Inspired by and named after our daughter Gali.

Our Story: On July 26th, 2010, our daughter Gali (short for Avigail) fell in the pool in Miami and drowned. While her 20-year Hatzalah veteran daddy performed CPR on her, her mommy vowed to Hashem to take upon herself a very holy, big and powerful mitzvah…. The mitzvah of Hair Covering. At the very moment that the promise came from her lips, the Master of the Universe mercifully granted them their daughter’s life back.
