Arachim will hold a training course for lecturers in New York
City for the first time ever next week. It is designed for
rabbis, yeshiva students and other activists.
The course is being run by Arachim in cooperation with
Netivot which is under the management of Rabbi Izik
Ginzburger. The course will prepare its graduates to function
more professionally in kiruv settings bringing Jewish
souls closer to tradition, as well as in seminars similar to
those held on a regular basis in Israel.
The participants will be honored by the presence of the Admor
of Novominsk, Rosh of Agudas Yisroel of America and a member
of the Moetzes Gedolei HaTorah of the American Agudah, as
well as HaRav Matisyahu Salomon, mashgiach of the
Lakewood Yeshiva. The course will be conducted by highly
experienced lecturers from Israel who will share their
knowledge and experience garnered from hundreds of Israeli
seminars. Among these senior lecturers are Rabbi Simcha
Cohen, Rabbi Daniel Nassie (lecturer and Head of the Training
Division of Arachim), Rabbi Aharon Levi and Rabbi Ynon
Kalazan.
Hundreds will participate in the various lectures. An
extensive range of literature and other materials will also
be distributed. The talks will be on many themes, including,
"Constructive Communication," "Foundations of Truth," "Torah
and Science," "Non-Verbal Communication," "Emotional
Intelligence," and many more. The meetings will be during the
afternoon and evening hours.
Rabbi Yosef Valis, Director General of Arachim, said that
this series of lectures is designed to help kiruv
efforts and related activities, in a manner and style that is
compatible with the lifestyle and unique needs of American
audiences. Rabbi Valis also said that the syllabus of the
course was developed under guidance of maranan verabonon
gedolei HaTorah and vehachassidus.
