The Great Debate: Should We Send Our Child to a Jewish School?
Join us on Shavuot Night - Sat 26 May, 8.30pm - as we tackle the really big questions:
Are dayschools really what they claim to be - an antidote to assimilation?
Why is "We're "Jewed Out"" a common refrain among day-school students?
Is Moriah a Jewish School or a School for Jews?
Don't Jewish schools encourage xenophobia?
Aren't our schools a playground for the privileged?
Are the schools worth the financial sacrifice?
Isn't Keser Torah a school for the "black hats"?
Featuring a diverse panel of students, parents, educators and community leaders. Click here for details.

Special Prayers
In view of the unstable state of the entire world at this time, I urge everyone to recite the following prayers, which according to the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, of blessed memory, have the ability to steady a shaky world.
At the beginning of the day, the following should be recited:
Behold I accept upon myself the positive commandment, "You shall love your neighbour as yourself."
One should say these next verses after one's prayers every day. Or if, for some reason one doesn't pray, then at least these verses should be recited:
Do not fear sudden terror, nor the destruction of the wicked when it comes. Contrive a scheme, but it will be foiled; conspire a plot, but it will not materialize, for G-d is with us. To your old age I am [with you]; to your hoary years I will sustain you; I have made you, and I will carry you; I will sustain you and deliver you. Indeed, the righteous will extol Your Name; the upright will dwell securely in Your presence.
