MARK YOU CALENDARS! March 18 - 19

Agam Berger is one of the five surveillance soldiers taken hostage on October 7th.

Her incredible family found meaning and deeply connected to the mitzvah of Taharat Hamishpacha. They coined the slogan “אגם למען אגם” and their goal is to spread awareness about the mitzvah of Taharat Hamishpacha and immersion in mayim tehorim (like an אגם) in the merit of Agam being freed. Nishmat's Golda Koschitszky Center for Yoatzot Halacha in Israel met with her mom, Merav Berger, and brainstormed how Yoatzot could partner with the family and help further this initiative.

This past Shabbat, the other four surveillance soldiers who were taken with Agam were freed while Agam remains in Hamas captivity in Aza.

CYI, along with many other community initiatives, joins Nishmat's Golda Kosh*tzky Yoatzot Halacha Center in sharing this special tefilah for the safe return of all the hostages including Agam bat Merav (shared below), to be said after mikveh immersion.

May we merit to see the release of all the hostages, safe and sound, with Agam Berger among them.

Thank you to everyone who joined us last night for the Taharat Hamishpacha Pop-Up Refresher! 🌸 We were inspired by Rebbetzin Leora Lesher’s insights on developing our inner world (pinimiyus) and had an engaging discussion with Yoetzet Halacha Sarit Anstandig, who addressed common questions and concerns. A special thank you to Shira Turk for graciously opening your home and hosting this meaningful event! 💕✨
