Kiruv Classes, Bris and Visiting Alumnae

Hey there alumnae I was just scrolling through my inbox (always a dangerous activity) and I realized how many pictures I had just sitting there. So instead of keeping them all to myself I've decided to share them with YOU.

Here it goes:

Tova Walder (Ehrlich 06-08) has recently given birth to a baby boy (MAZAL TOV!) the bris turned out to be a bit of a Tomer Devorah event. The babies name is Elazar Menachem Man (named after Rav Shach).

Mrs. Rivkah Wieniger, Esther Amster, Dena Lichtman, Leah Kasten, Lani Pearl, Pesha Rubin, Mrs. Chaya Rochel Satt (Weinstock), Tova Walder (Ehrlich), Sara Orlan (madricha), Julie Wasserman, Sarie Levey, Naomi Markovic (Abrams), Adrienne Rosenthal, Reena Fried, Ariana Goldwasser and Miss Sarah Kesler.

First up... this past Motzei Shabbos Rachel Minkin hosted a kiruv class in her home. A woman from Project Inspired came to give a class to the alumnae, they gained a lot from it! Thank you Carol for sending in the picture and keep on learning!

Atara Kaufman (08-09), Carol Kritzman, Seffi Millstein, Leora Lax, Chelsea Shulman, Pearly Guttman, Rinat Liberman, Rachel Minkin, Esti Cohen and Aliza Abilevitz (09-10)

And lastly (but not leastly :) Hadassah Efros (06-07) recently took a trip to Toronto and had a visit with Lila (Simon/Grafstein 06-07), they kindly took a picture to share with us.

The Annual Tomer Devorah Alumnae Reunion has hardly ended and Alyssa Ebrani (08-10) has sent me pictures already! I don't even have much to post because I haven't had time to to talk to anyone about it but I wanted to get the pictures up so those of us who couldn't make it could enjoy them. Thank you so much Alyssa and thank you to all the attendees who made it out and to the Rabbis, of course, for all the work they put into the reunion.
I'll put a post up about the reunion as soon as I can.
Shavua Tov!
