Strengthening Torah Life. Advocating for the Community. Serving Each Individual. | | August 27, 2021 - 19 Elul 5781 News from the Agudah:
- A stronger Agudah is a stronger Klal Yisroel. Over the last week or two, you have seen those words in various periodicals, in these News from Agudah emails, or forwarded by a friend. To us, working in the Agudah, we really feel these words. We know that our efforts on your behalf directly correlate with how much support we get from you. There are different types of support, of course. When you hit "reply" to one of these emails with a question or a comment – that's support. When you tell someone you meet something you learned in this email – that's support. But when you click on this link, and donate money to the Agudah, that makes everything else possible. Everything that you read about in these emails is because of you. We can't do it without you – hayom t'amtzeinu, give us strength to continue to serve the Klal, to serve you. That's what "A stronger Agudah is a stronger Klal Yisroel" means to us, and we hope that it will mean the same thing to you. Thank you for participating in this fundraising effort – please click here to take part.

| | Agudath Israel Mourns the U.S. Servicemen and Other Innocents Killed in Kabul | | Agudath Israel of America joins the rest of the nation in mourning the U.S. servicemen and other innocents killed in yesterday's ruthless and contemptible suicide bombings in Kabul.
Our soldiers died in service to our country and its values — shielding civilians and assisting them to safety, even at the risk of their own lives. They were heroes who made the ultimate sacrifice, as they fulfilled their duty to "protect and defend."
Innocent men, women and children were murdered while trying to flee a repressive regime that will not hesitate to brutally attack, murder and pillage, especially those who have supported and assisted the U.S. mission in Afghanistan.
We pray for a speedy and smooth recovery to the injured. And we pray for calm and peace in Afghanistan, and for safety to those who remain there and to those who wish to leave. | | The Torah Projects Commission of Agudas Yisroel is proud to announce that its 32nd nationwide yom iyun will take place next Sunday, August 29, at 9:00 AM EDT.
