Students Perform Mitzvos for The Holy Land

In light of the situation in The Land of Israel in recent days, and following the Rebbe’s call during the 1967 War to add in Mitzvos – specifically reaching out and putting on Tefillin with Jews who would otherwise not, Bochurim from the Rabbinical College of America in Morristown, NJ headed out this Friday to Rutgers University to do Mivtzoim with the newly formed “Rutgers Jewish Outreach” – a program of Chabad of New Jersey.

Over 25 students came out and put on Tefillin, said Shema and a prayer for their brothers and sisters in Israel.

Three students celebrated a Bar Mitzva by putting on Tefillin for the first time!

30 sets of Shabbos candles were given out to Jewish women, in addition to other popular Mivtzoim leaflets and brochures.
