The Shlichim will hear sessions on a wide range of topics, including a workshop on acting and improvisation, how to work as a team, meeting olim and alumni from the various communities, how to plan a community-wide event, tools to manage a successful Facebook page and how to deal with Halachic issues on shlichut.
Among the speakers are former Roshei Kollel Rav Yehuda Lapian (Washington 2006-2010) and Rav Rafi Kadosh (Cape Town 1999-2001), who will share from their experiences on shlichut and beyond.
On Shabbat, the shlichim will welcome the Kruger family, who will be our guests for the weekend. Rav Yaakov and Vardit opened the Kollel in Montevideo, Uruguay in 1997. Over the course of Shabbat Rav Kruger and Vardit will give shiurim and spend time with the outgoing shlichim. Also joining us for Shabbat are the extended Torah MiTzion family; Zeev Schwartz (Executive Director), Emanuel Elstein (CFO), Yoav Cohen-Hadad (Head of Shlichut Department), Hasida Pinchuk (Coordinator of Midreshet Tzion and Advisor for the Shlichim) and Arik Speaker (Head of European Desk and coordinator of LILMOD) together with their spouses and children.
We're looking forward to a productive, meaningful and fun weekend!
