Torah Lishmah Community students and members of Congregation Beth Shalom participated in the Federation of Jewish Men’s Clubs World Wide Wrap on Sunday, Feb. 4 at Tree of Life*Or L’Simcha Congregation. 

The World Wide Wrap is an annual event that occurs on Super Bowl Sunday and is an educational program to learn about, experience the joy and promote the mitzvah of wrapping tefillin.

Torah Lishmah Community fifth-graders, along with their teacher Stephen Weiss, participated in the Build-a-Pair program prior to the wrap. They learned about the mitzvah of wrapping tefillin and how they are made. They then made their own “model” tefillin. Also pictured are sixth-and seventh-grade students from TLC and madrich (teen helper) Sammy Nayhouse. (Photo courtesy of Torah Lishmah Community)
