Degel HaTorah Board Set Up in Herzliyah
By A. Cohen
Degel HaTorah held an executive meeting in Herzliyah
following a decision by the national board to set up new
boards and renew boards in places that already have them. The
execution of the decision began last month when a number of
local board meetings were held. Two weeks ago a local board
meeting was also held in Afula and a new board was
selected.
Last week was Herzliyah's turn and indeed a meeting was held
in the home of Degel HaTorah City Councilman Rabbi Moshe
Garshi in the Neveh Amal neighborhood. Together with other
local activists, Rabbi Garshi presented an overview of
activities being carried out in the city, noting the solid
left-wing majority on the city council and the disturbing
chilul Shabbos that takes place in the city. On the
other hand participants said many children are joining the
city's Agudas Yisroel kindergartens and Chinuch Atzmai
schools.
"We intend to reach every community in Eretz Yisroel," said
MK Rabbi Avrohom Ravitz. "We must increase our efforts to
strengthen Judaism and the religious public, creating a warm
haven for all those who want to partake of the light of
Torah." He also noted Degel HaTorah is not just a political
party, but also a Torah enterprise.
