Shabbat Chill in Forest Hill
Reflections from the men’s Toronto Shabbaton
It was amazing to be so fully absorbed by this incredible congregation in Forest Hill, Toronto – from the majestic synagogue to the brilliant rabbis and guest speakers, to the warm members of the congregation and kollel (community of men studying Torah). Immersing ourselves in other like-minded Jewish organizations with the JFX men has been a constant reminder of the gift of JFX... the ruach (spirit), the learning, the joy. The goings-on at 2200 S. Green Road are as good as it gets out there. A special thank you to Rabbi Koval who helped ten JFX men engage so fully in another Overview Effect moment. Came home five pounds heavier but more spiritually uplifted to optimize the year ahead. Kol hakavod guys! (Well done!)
