Discounted Seats to Siyum Hashas for Kiruv Organizations and Community Kollelim
Large group orders for Siyum Hashas tickets have been pouring in to the Agudah over the past few weeks. The Agudah has made it clear that equal priority will be given to kiruv groups as Daf Yomi groups but that both are on a first-come-first-served basis. Orders should be submitted soon to ensure that your group will sit together and that your group gets the best seats available. For discounted seats for Kiruv organizations, please call Yechiel Horowitz at 973-221-3650 ext. 117. A copy of the seating schematic can be found by Clicking Here.
We have received numerous requests for samples of our Pre-Siyum A Taste of Talmud Curriculum. This session on lifney iver is part of an 8-part series designed to give your students a chance to experience the joy of learning and a deeper appreciation for the depth and relevance of Gemarah, Medrash, and various other texts. To make the entire series available to your students, please call Yechiel Horowitz at 973-221-3650 ext. 117.
