Congregation Anshe Chesed of Linden has kicked off its year of learning with two special guest shiurim from rabbeim from Yeshiva University's Center for the Jewish Future (CJF). In preparing for the month of Elul, Rabbi Yaakov Glasser of Young Israel of Passaic and the CJF delivered an enlightening and entertaining shiur on September 11th, on the topic of teshuva. He focused on the difference between teshuva emerging from a person's environment and that emerging from the person's own character.
In another moving and inspiring shiur, Rabbi Baruch Simon, Rosh Yeshiva at YU, delivered pre-slichos mussar on motzi shabbos September 21st. He highlighted the way that slichos connects with the uniqueness of Shabbos and comes from Bnei Yisrael's being the childen of Hashem. Slichos were led as in previous years by the incredible Chazzan Moshe Udashkin of Teaneck.
Rabbi Joshua Hess of Anshe Chesed also continues his Yamim Noraim shiur series Wednesday night and Thursday night, September 25th and October 3rd. More information is at www.anshechesed.org
