The “Tov VeChesed” volunteer project of the Dnipro Jewish Community, under the direction of Chana Nesches, once again visited children who require special care \u2013 children growing up without parental support and living in specialized facilities established as part of the “Good at Home” project.<\/p>

<\/p>

The latest gathering was dedicated to the weekly Torah portion of Beha’aloscha, the name of which is connected to the commandment of lighting the Menorah. Together with the volunteers, the children discussed the image of the High Priest Aaron, who lit the Menorah daily in the Mishkan, and reflected on what meaning this image holds for every person today. The children were taught that just as the Menorah was lit, a person must kindle an inner light each morning by turning to the Almighty, thanking Him for the new day, and asking for a blessing for all future endeavors. <\/p>

<\/p>

The volunteers also spoke with the children about the events described in this weekly portion. Special attention was given to the story of Moses, to whom the Almighty gave seventy elders to assist him in leading the people, thereby demonstrating the importance of support and mutual help. Equally significant was the discussion of the story of Miriam, who was punished for the words she spoke about her brother, yet the first to pray for her was Moses himself. This story served as a starting point for a conversation about relationships between siblings, about the need to show patience, respect, and love toward one another even when hurt feelings, arguments, or misunderstandings arise. <\/p>

<\/p>

As always, the gathering was not limited to Torah study alone. The volunteers brought treats for the children, played with them, drew pictures, and spent time together in a warm and friendly atmosphere, striving to give the children good cheer, attention, and care. <\/p>

<\/p>

“We spoke with the children about how every person is capable of kindling light within themselves by beginning their day with gratitude and turning to the Almighty,” says project director Chana Nesches. “It is very important to learn to treat each other with care, not to hurt others with words, to try to understand those close to us, and to remember that even when conflicts or difficulties arise, love, patience, support, and faith help overcome any trial. This is precisely what our dedicated team of volunteers strives to teach the children at every gathering.”<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
