News from the Agudah:

  • It's almost election day, and as always, the Agudah encourages every person to vote! Here's an interview that the Voice of Lakewood did, featuring two Agudah staff members, Rabbi Abba Cohen and Rabbi Avi Schnall. They address a lot of questions that people have about voting, including, "Does my vote make a difference?" (Spoiler alert: It does!)

  • The Agudah held an Asifah L'hisorerus yesterday, and we were privileged to hear hadrachah from Gedolei Yisroel and emerge with a sense of purpose and direction. Many thousands joined, but we received feedback that the lines were overloaded and many could not join. We're sorry! Please see below for the information you need to either view or listen to the Asifah now, if you missed it yesterday.

  • Agudas Yisroel of Peterson Park in Chicago is continuing its series of shiurim by Rabbi Shmuel Fuerst on Halacha L'maaseh. Tonights topic will be on Halachos of Refuah: taking medicines, vitamins, antibiotics, and iron pills on Shabbos and will be held 8:30 pm EDT. The call in number is (518) 425-1725. 

  • Keep an eye out in your inbox tonight for this week's Ki Heim Chayeinu video, with inspiring words about kvias itim l'Torah.

  • For women and girls: Bnos is hosting a special Yom Tefillah this Thursday, the day of Rochel Imeinu's yahrtzeit. Please see below for details.

  • Lastly, see below for this week's Iyunim B'hilchos Shabbos schedule - we hope you'll join!
