Live Webinar with Rabbi Ben Tzion Shafier of the Shmuz Tonight: Reacting to the Tragedy in Brooklyn

By Jewish Press Staff

March 31, 2015, 4 PM ET

It’s a Friday night, in a typical brick home, in a typical frum neighborhood in Brooklyn, a mother and eight children sleep peacefully. The father away at a kiruv Shabbaton. After midnight, a hot plate, left on for Shabbos, malfunctions. Fire engulfs the kitchen, then rip through the house. Smoke and flames shoot up the stairway, and on to the bedrooms. Somehow the mother and one child escape. The other children are trapped. It’s not long before seven innocent children are dead.

We all heard the news, and as individuals we grieve, as a nation we are traumatized. A family. 7 Children. An indescribable tragedy. How do they go on? How do we react? And what lessons are we supposed to learn?

Join us tonight, March 31st at 8:30 pm EST for a live webinar with Rabbi Ben Tzion Shafier of the Shmuz, as he discusses the issues involved and then opens the floor to questions and discussions.
