Top Shavout 2019
As we continue our discussions about Sefiras Haomer, we talked about the tragedy that took place during this time with the death of the 24,000 students of Rebbi Akiva. We discussed ways of applying the lesson into our own lives and how it applies to our preparation for receiving the Torah. This week, we had another visit from Mrs. Bodkins and the 9th grade of Sha’arei Bina at one of our facilities. Mrs. Bodkins taught how Mt. Sinai was covered in flowers after the Torah was given and how we put flowers in our homes and synagogues in remembrance of that. Afterwards, the girls paired up with their partners and painted flower pots, and planted flowers inside.
Top Pesach 2019
The TOP program was amazing! Mrs. Bodkins and her Sha’arei Bina girls reminisced with residents about their Pesach memories.The week before Pesach we held several model Seders which encouraged the residents that they can do it on their own. We also heard from residents who still remember Mah Nishtana in Hebrew, English, and even in Yiddish.Finally, we had our Chol Hamoed Brunch hosted by the Bodkins family, featuring Rabbi Bodkins' famous Matzah Brie. We watched a movie clip entitled, From the Bottom of the Red Sea, which showed there is still wreckage from the Egyptian chariots that chased the Jewish people after Hashem had split the sea.

Mishenichnas Adar Marbim Besimcha!
Mrs. Bodkins and her Sha’arei Bina girls did it again by bringing an early Purim to the Peninsula ALF with Mishloach Manos. Before the girls came, Rabbi Bodkins taught the reason behind the Mitzvah of Shalach Manos and its details. As soon as the girls arrived, they paired up with the residents, decorated Mishloach Manos baskets, and filled them with Hamentachen and other goodies. Afterwards, every resident pulled a name of another resident out of a basket and gave their Shalach Manos to them. It was a beautiful experience and everyone enjoyed it.
