The coldest day in 100 years didn’t stop hundreds of people from all backgrounds coming to rejoice in BJX’s first Hachnosas Sefer Torah.

On Sunday, February 14th (5 Adar Rishon), distinguished Rabbanim and Admorim, mispallelim and talmidim of the BJX Beis HaMedrash ecstatically dedicated their first Sefer Torah. This unique Sefer Torah will also be used to share the love of Hashem with unaffiliated Jews and introduce them to our heritage.

One senior community askan said, “I’ve been to hundreds of Hachnasas Sefer Torah events, the one at BJX outshone them all. There was an intense Kedusha you felt and the simcha and sincerity was the most palpable and genuine I’ve ever experienced.”
