Let’s all Wrap

“Our goal is to give the opportunity to all to learn about Tfilin. Young, old ,male, female. Everyone needs to know. This is the first time we were able to conduct a worldwide wrap program in person since covid. We had approximately 65 Youth and adults participate in their program. We even had a cut away model is Tfilin in to show how the parchment is placed inside. Many many of the participants were extremely enlightened by this event. And some of them even come to our minions now. We are placed on the earth to educate Our Generation and future Generations Ldor Vdor.
