S.E.M. Torah for Parshat Vaera

Please click here to listen to S.E.M. Torah for this week.

For more S.E.M. Torah, please click here.

S.E.M. Torah is a series of brief divrei Torah delivered by various members of the faculty of Sha’alvim for Women.

S.E.M. stands (good-humoredly) for "Squeezing Every Minute" and represents an important philosophy at SFW: every minute counts and every minute can be used productively. Torah must be learned deeply and profoundly on the highest levels possible. However, even when you find that you have only a few moments, we believe that opportunities - like listening to this S.E.M. Torah - are always available…. if you know where to look!

Bone Marrow Drive at SFW!

This week, Sha’alvim for Women held our own “Bone Marrow Campaign.” Girls over the age of 18 were invited to submit a “bone marrow sample” (a painless swab in the inside of the cheek). If they chose to do so, their information will be sent to the Gift of Life registry which matches potential donors and ill patients who might benefit from a bone marrow transplant.

Our campaign was run by SFW students in conjunction with Kedma, Gift of Life’s Israel agent for registering overseas students in the international bone marrow registry.

Tiyul to Mitzpe Yericho and the Yarden

Yesterday, we went on a great Sefer Yehoshua-themed tiyul.

We began at Mitzpe Yericho where we looked out over Yericho, the first city to be conquered in Eretz Yisrael by Yehoshua. We continued on to the Yarden River to see where Bnei Yisrael crossed into Eretz Yisrael and looked across the river to Gilgal.
