Names: Rabbi Shmuly Begun and Prof. Alberto
Romano
Mitzvah: Tefillin

Originally from East New York, 97 year-old Alberto Romano now lives in Tierrasanta, San Diego. He was a professor in mathematical statistics. When meeting with Rabbi Shmuly Begun he recalled how we used to put on tefillin every day, go to shul on shabbos, and lain the Torah. However, when he was 15 he quit it all! When Begun mentioned tefillin, Romano happily wrapped, remembering the shema.
In the emotional moment, Romano hugged Begun and expressed how very thankful he was!

Names: Austin and Rabbi Voskoboinik
Mitzvah: Tefillin

The 30 Mile Bar Mitzvah.
Rabbi Lev Yaakov Voskoboinik, shliach by the University of Kansas, had the great honor of celebrating Austin’s bar mitzvah in Topeka, Kansas - 30 miles from the closest synagogue. The bar mitzvah boy’s Grandmother noted “There aren’t words to express the joy ... my grandson on his bar mitzvah brought us. No matter what he does the rest of his life, he will always remember this day.” Mazal Tov Austin!
