Chesed Trip to Yad Lekashish and trip to "Ir Dovid"

On Wednesday September 17th, Tiferet began the year with our first “Chesed Tiyul.” We began the day with a tour of Yad Lekashish, a unique chesed organization in Yerushalayim that provides employment and social services for the elderly - in particular elderly that have made Aliya. In their many art workshops, the elderly make beautiful pieces of art, Judaica and jewelry that are sold in their gift shop from where proceeds go back into supporting the elderly. The girls loved shmoozing with the artists and praising their work and the elderly were enamored with our students.

That afternoon, we davened at the kotel and toured Ir David - and saw where David established his monarchy. By studying the pesukim in Sefer Shmuel, we learned about David's conquest of Yerushalayim and establishing it as our eternal capital. The tour concluded with a great walk through the water of the 2,700 year old Chizkiyahu’s tunnel.
