From the Hakham’s desk:

With all the sad news that we are constantly subjected to, isn’t it wonderful to hear that our future looks “bright”?
The Hakhamim tell us that the Torah, which is the basis of Judaism, is “light”. Our job is to illuminate the paths of all our people.
To this end, the doors of the Midrash remain open to all Jews, irrespective of their own personal level of observance.
Our only request is that they respect both our Babylonian heritage and our religion. This is in contrast to those who reject both, thereby choosing darkness and lack of understanding.
Your support of our ideals has recently been shown in several ways. Firstly, our annual dinner this year, surpassed all previous annual dinners, surprising even those who were involved in its organization
Secondly, with extreme gratitude to Providence, we were blessed with the one thing that eluded us so badly -- a donation of a Sefer Torah. And miraculously, it was followed a few weeks later, by the dedication of a second one.
We need no more proof that Haqqadosh Barukh Hu and you, our supporters, feel that Midrash BEN ISH HAI and the Midrash High School are following the true path to ensure our future.
If you have not already done so, please visit us at the Midrash and witness our future in the making.
With Torah blessings,   Hakham Ya'aqob Menashe
