On Shabbos, Parshas Toldos, November 13-14th, Southeast Hebrew Congregation, Knesset Yehoshua, of Silver Spring (www.southeasthebrew.org) was privileged to host Rabbi Ben Tzion Shafier of The Shmuz.
“Our community was very much taken by Rabbi Shafier’s warmth, sincerity, humor, and insight, combined with his breadth of both Torah and secular knowledge,” says Hyam Singer of Silver Spring, who coordinated the event. “Over the course of his stay in our community, Rabbi Shafier dealt with practical issues ranging from personal growth, to bitachon in troubling times, to juggling life’s many demands. His presentations were highly informative and even included practical techniques to help ensure a successful marriage. The feedback I received from members of our community was extremely positive across the board.”
The Shmuz is a Torah lecture that offers a worldview on major life issues ranging from working on our middos to learning to be a better spouse, from understanding the meaning of our davening to what our purpose is in this world. Rabbi Ben Tzion Shafier has been delivering these lectures across America and beyond for over a decade.
