"HaKodosh Boruch Hu is Calling Us. How Do We
Respond?" is the intriguing title of a 2-day summer seminar
for women to be presented by Jewel-Aish HaTorah Women's
Organization/EYAHT on July 10 and 11 in Jerusalem.
The English-language seminar, which annually attracts more
than 200 women from all over Israel as well as overseas
visitors, features an outstanding lineup of dynamic and
engaging speakers, including: Rav Yitzchok Berkowitz, Rav
Zev Leff, Rav Mordechai Neugershal, Rav Motty Berger, and
Rav Avrohom Gross. Other inspiring educators include:
Rebbetzin Denah Weinberg, Rebbetzin Nechama Karlinsky, and
Rebbetzin Vital Kalmanowitz.
After producing more than a decade's worth of summer
seminars that explored general women's issues such as
emunah, bitachon, simcha, and chinuch, the
seminar organizers chose this year's topic in response to
the current matzav in Eretz Yisroel and in Klal
Yisroel in general.
"People are asking what we're required to do when the
situation is so volatile," explains one of the organizers.
"We want to give women direction as to how to respond right
now."
To that end, speakers will address topics such as:
"Entreating Hashem," "Tapping Our Inner Strength," "Sharing
Another's Pain," and, "How Do the Wise Respond?"
