On Thursday we were blessed with two Smachot at the Yeshiva:

in the morning, the Bar Mitzvah of the third member of a family

who celebrated his Bar Mitzvah with us.

The eldest (who is already serving in the IDF as an officer in the Armored Corps) eight years ago,

the second son five years ago.

The boy read the Torah accurately

thanks to Noam Rosenberg's (Shiur Alef) meticulous preparation.

In the afternoon we celebrated with Rabbi Maor

The Brit Milah of his son.

Members of his extended family were present,

as well as many students serving now in the army,

graduates, and of course the Yeshiva Rabbis.

In the picture is the Rosh Yeshiva's blessing for the Bar Mitzvah boy,

and a picture from the Brit Milah.
