Chol HaMoed Yarchei Kallah:
Beginning Shortly!
With the learning and growth of the past weeks invigorating us, we are delighted to announce an additional extension to our program for this Chol Hamoed. This coming Sunday through Tuesday, world renowned Maggidei Shiur will be learning with us on Hilchos and Inyanei Sefiras Haomer. 

Harav Shraga Kallus will be speaking today at 10:30 AM EDT. 

These special Chol HoMoed Yarchei Kallah are l'zeicher nishmas R' Yaakov ben R' Nochum Mordechai, ZTVK"L, the Novominsker Rebbe, Rosh Agudas Yisroel. 

Over the past weeks we have strengthened ourselves in seeing the light of Torah shine on in these dark days. If you haven't participated thus far, now is the time. This Chol Hamoed, use the enforced isolation for a greater purpose. Use the time to give yourself and Klal Yisroel some much needed chizuk in Torah and Avodas Hashem.

Hatred of Jews Deserves our Condemnation
Over recent weeks and days, anti-Semitic graffiti has been scrawled on the facades of a number of buildings and walls across the country: A Chabad Center in Brookline, Massachusetts, a private structure in nearby Bedford; a park wall in Ames, Iowa; a public school in Toronto; a shul in Los Angeles; and, most recently, a Conservative congregation and a Chabad Center in Huntsville, Alabama.

Such vile demonstrations of hatred for Jews are nothing new. But they deserve our disgust and condemnation all the same.

And they have it.
