Welcome Chayalim Bodedim (Lone soldiers)
The 8:50 minyan this Shabbat will be graced with the presence of two newly inducted ‘lone Soldiers’. Aaron Katzin from New York (brother of our member Avraham Katzin) and Sammy Kaye, from San Jose, California. Both are currently students at Yeshivat Hesder Shalavim. They have recently been mitchayel (went through the initial induction stage and are officially soldiers, although they do not start basic training and continue to study in the Yeshiva). They will soon be mitgayes (leave the Yeshiva and start basic training).
We extend to them our blessings that they serve with distinction and complete their military service unscathed and in good health.
Aaron and Sammy hope to live in our community during their army service.
