Uriel Cohen is having a blast in his first summer on the NCSY Summer Kollel. Originally from Brookline, MA, Uriel attended Maimonides School and then spent two great years at Yeshivat Torat Shraga in Bayit Vegaan, Yerushalayim. Uriel is currently entering his second year at Yeshiva University.
This chabura is filled with an awesome group of guys that are looking to grow in their Avodas HaShem each and every day. It’s a great mix of ‘in town’ and ‘out of town’ with half the chabura representing TABC and the other half representing Hillel Pittsburgh.
From TABC we got the two Teaneck boys: Binyomin Bak HaKohen and Ayden Gurin, two guys that always add a ton to discussions and radiate positivity to all who are around.
Hailing from Pittsburgh, Nathan Itskowitz HaKohen and Josh Siebzener bring a ton to the table. Their humor is top-notch and is a nice compliment to the amount they add to our learning as a group.
The whole group has gotten super close over the summer and hopes to keep the learning going in the future.
This summer we started by learning about different ways to appreciate Shabbos, not only for 25 hours, but all week long. We then transitioned to different discussions/debates on topics that the guys came up with themselves. The goal is to implement Torah values into everyday conversations and actions.
We were zoche to have a special group this summer. However, the summer is simply a foundation for the Torah and continued friendships we will build together for years to come.
