RKYHS students have been dedicated to ramping up their tefillot for all the people in Israel, the brave soldiers serving in the IDF and for those who have been captured. RKYHS students took the initiative to form a rolling Tehillim group on WhatsApp. Students from all four grades have joined and sign up throughout the day and night to say a perek or multiple perakim of Tehillim for Israel, completing the sefer repeatedly. May the tefillot of these students be answered and bring safety, security and peace to the people in Israel and the brave soldiers in the IDF.
At the end of the week, RKYHS students came together to use song as a way to express their feelings and to connect both to Hashem and to one another. During the kumzitz, they discussed the worldwide “Just One Shabbos” initiative, which charged people to elevate their Shabbat practices in the merit of chayalei Tzahal. Students then each committed to at least one way they would personally enhance their Shabbat experiences. May their many beautiful mitzvot serve as a zechut for all those protecting our land and people.
The Jewish Life Committee can often be found handing out special treats at the JLC Shabbat Cart on Erev Shabbat. This past week, the Jewish Life Committee handed out a number of pre-Shabbat snacks, but in return students said any number of Tehillim as a way to add increased tefillot.
