Ready to be a little extra-inspired? We’ve got two videos scheduled for tomorrow! First up, Milton 6th grader Yarden Wilkenfeld decided to make a video for our #30Days and send it in. Enjoy the content, creativity, and special effects (yes!) as Yarden explains the halachot of building a kosher sukkah. Then, Sandy Walter returns for part two of the high holiday gardening series by nurturing our personal growth with her green thumbs.

Project 187 is complete! Simchat Torah provides a capstone of the Holiday season with a boisterous celebration of the completion of reading the Torah and the beginning of a new cycle.

With gratitude to Josh Wilkenfeld for facilitating the project, we are pleased to present this beautiful reflection from the Ohr Kodesh community
