Wednesday night, the Kollel Beis Medrash experienced on of the most memorable nights in NCSY Kollel history!!!
During night Seder, Nachum Segal and his team recorded an unprecedented episode of their renowned show, JM in the AM, from the corner of our Kollel Beis Medrash. Many Rebbeim, Administrators, and NCSYers were interviewed, and the conversation focused on the experience of Kollel. The crew was amazed at the Kol Torah of the Beis Medrash and the affect the program was clearly having on so many Jewish teenage boys.
The real excitement of the night, however, took place later in the evening. After maariv, (and of course, after our regular, mandatory programming came to a close) the Beis Medrash was packed for an incredibly special and moving Torah writing ceremony. This was the prelude to the traditional Hachnasas Sefer Torah that highlighted Thursday’s Yom NCSY. That Torah made it’s way to our late night Beis Medrash, and was greeted by the greatest of NCSY Kollel spirit and camaraderie. This torah holds a special place in our hearts (and will in fact be housed in our Beis Medrash for the duration of the summer). It is dedicated by Marilyn and David Cutler in memory of David’s parents.Representatives of our Roshei Yeshiva, staff, and NCSYers all wrote letters, along with a young man from TJJ. It was an unforgettable night, as NCSYers locked arm in arm danced and sang the Torah into and out of the Beit Medrash, a moving scene that will hopefully last a lifetime.
