Inspiring Film on HaRav Yaakov Weinberg zt'l
Rav Weinberg had a profound impact on the Jewish people and so many Jewish organizations - including AJOP. He made Torah alive and real to thousands, from all walks of life. Even his brother Rav Noach Weinberg zt"l, founder of Aish HaTorah, viewed him as his Rebbe and the Rebbe of Klal Yisroel. Experience the warmth of the Rosh HaYeshiva who guided thousands in communities around the world!
This is a powerful film about Torah, truth, being responsible, caring for others, and much more!
Worldwide community showings are being coordinated for shortly after Chanukah. The fee to show the film is
$200 and includes a professionally designed flyer for easy advertising. To be part of the premiere and show this powerful story in your community, click
