Pre-Pesach Volunteering and learning

Some of us later contributed of ourselves by volunteering at the "Chazon Yishaaya" soup kitchen and helped pack around 10,000 packages for "Kimcha D'pischa" - making sure that Holocaust survivors and other poor people receive food for Pesach. WOW, that was amazing!

Additionally, Rav Yossela reviewed the halachot of Pesach with us, reminding us what to clean, how to clean, and what to do with the remainder of our chametz. He taught us the halachot of Mechirat Chametz, including how exactly to go about it, and talked to us about the timeframe of Bedikat Chametz and Biur Chametz.

We accomplished all this while continuing to learn our regular Judaic classes and volunteering. In short, what a great first two weeks in Jerusalem! Can't wait for more!!
