Degel HaTorah Executive Board Meets
By A. Cohen
A recent meeting of the Degel HaTorah Executive Board at
party headquarters in Bnei Brak opened with a survey of the
weekly meetings held in various locations in the North, South
and Central Regions to discuss the expansion and renewal of
existing branches and the setup of new branches in 45 towns,
local councils and regional councils. Reports were presented
by Chairman MK Rabbi Avrohom Ravitz, Secretary MK Moshe Gafni
and Municipal Department Director Rabbi Menachem Shapira.
In their surveys they describe a great deal of enthusiasm at
the branches where these gatherings are held, attesting to
the importance of Degel HaTorah and its representatives in
every community, each of which has its own specific needs to
be addressed and emphasized.
All of the board members took part in a lively, prolonged
discussion on the path Degel HaTorah should follow in the
years to come. Alongside Degel HaTorah veterans who have been
active in the movement since its inception and took part in
its formation by maranan verabonon zt"l vylct"a in
order to unite the Torah world and the various chareidi
communities under a single movement heeding gedolei
Yisroel unswervingly, are numerous public activists and
representatives who were very young at the time and today
occupy important posts at the various branches as public
servants working night and day to promote Degel HaTorah's
success.
