Shuvu Children and Their Parents Powerfully Impacted by Seminar
by Yechiel Sever

Shuvu brings education work beyond the classroom. The school day doesn't end with the final bell, but continues with visits at the homes of the teachers and directors, groups with avreichim and Shabbos events and seminars for students and their parents.


Rebbetzin Bas Sheva Esther Kanievsky o"h
By S. Bruchi

Led by gedolei Yisroel, roshei yeshivos, dayonim, rabbonim and admorim, thousands from all streams of chareidi Judaism converged on Bnei Brak on Motzei Shabbos Chol Hamoed to lay to rest Rebbetzin Bas Sheva Esther Kanievsky o"h, the wife of HaRav Chaim Kanievsky ylct"a and the daughter of Maran HaRav Yosef Sholom Eliashiv ylct"a, who passed away unexpectedly on Shabbos afternoon.

by Yated Ne'eman Staff

HaRav Meir Tzvi Bergman led hundreds at the levaya for R' Ephraim Ezriel Shach, the only son of the Avi Ezri, who passed away in Jerusalem at the age of 81, following a serious illness.


The Chelkas Yoav HaRav Yoav Yehoshua Weingarten, zt"l of Kintzk
In honor of his yahrtzeit 4th Cheshvan

As soon as Rabbi Yoav Yehoshua was born, his righteous parents, R' Nosson Nota zt"l and Rivkoh o"h promised that he would be given the best chance to learn Torah. The child showed extraordinary talent and genius and as soon as he was old enough, he was sent to learn under the guidance of the Agudas Eizov in Biala.

IN-DEPTH FEATURES: Rabbi Mordechai Miller: He Changed the Face of Torah Jewry



by M. Samsonowitz

Part I

This title will probably cause more than a few eyebrows to rise. Many of the readers are probably wondering, "Who is Rabbi Mordechai Miller who is being lauded in terms reserved for only a very few?" Other readers will protest, "Rabbi Miller was such a humble, self-effacing person, he would have cringed to have such a title written about him!"
But it was no less than HaRav Shach who once told Rabbi Miller, "You probably think your zechus is limited to teaching girls, but in fact you saved the yeshivos. Your merits are great!"

Opinion & Comment
Our Father's Suffering


by HaRav Avrohom HaKohen Pam zt"l

[The following is based on the speech of HaRav Pam at the opening session of the American Agudas Yisroel convention six years ago. HaRav Yitzchok Silberstein, rav of Ramat Elchonon, said at the time that every avreich should read it. It is unfortunately very true still in our times. In a relatively few words, HaRav Pam zt"l describes the situation of the Jewish People as he saw it, and the task that lay before them. His efforts in his last years in the Shuvu educational system in Israel and elsewhere are clearly the result of this hashkofoh.]
