Beginning on the Erev Shabbos before Tisha B’Av and continuing until Tisha B’Av is over on Sunday night, we will be hosting a series of Chizuk videos on our homepage in honor of Tisha B’Av. Our hopes are that these videos will inspire, educate, and motivate people to grow in their personal avodas Hashem and to help us all merit the building of the Beis Hamikdash B’Mheroh Beyomenu.
Now more than ever, as people are confined to their homes and am yisroel experiences unprecedented tzaros, these videos can serve as a safe, convenient, and powerful way for us reconnect and make this Tisha B’Av as meaningful as possible.
Multiple leading Jewish organizations have already joined our initiative to broadcast, stream, and share words of Torah and Chizuk. These include:
Project Inspire
Experience the unbelievable story of the Jews of Russia who risked their lives for the sake of spiritual continuity, fueled by Jews from Israel and America who traveled behind the Iron Curtain to help secretly spread Torah and Mitzvos. With exclusive interviews from Rabbi Eliyahu Essas, Rabbi Yosef Mendelevich, Rabbi Sholom Gold and more, this year’s Tisha B’Av event is sure to be captivating.
Hear firsthand reports of the heroism of those who sacrificed to stand up against the huge empire of the former Soviet Union attempting to quash any and all signs of Jewish observance. Together, these small groups of Jews brought down one of the greatest empires in world history.
