Dear Torat Imecha Nach Yomi Family, 


Mazel tov - what a remarkable accomplishment!  You have completed two years of learning, 742 perakim as part of a community of close to ten thousand women across the globe! At a siyum, we recite a unique prayer, the Hadran.

 

The message of the Hadran is we pray that we return to this sefer, that completion is not a final goodbye. Our hope is to revisit our sacred and beloved Sifrei Nach, to learn more and grow from the holy messages we've learned. Tomorrow we will put the Hadran words into action, returning with joy to the beginning of Sefer Yehoshua.  May we continue to learn together and greet each other in Yerushalyaim Ir Hakodesh, celebrating in a rebuilt Beit HaMikdash.

 
With deep emotion, I wish each of you a heartfelt mazel tov and yasher koach.

We find ourselves in exceptionally challenging times. May our learning be a zechus for the safe and speedy return of our captives, the healing of our wounded, the safety of our brothers and sisters in Eretz Yisrael, and help to protect all those fighting on the front lines.
