Rabbi Completes Quest to Print Tanya in Every RI City

Providence Journal

Rabbi Aryeh Laufer proofreads a page of the Tanya, a book written by Hasidic Master Rabbi Schneur Zalman of Liadi, founder of the Chabad-Lubavitch, before delivering it to the Town of Burrillville.

The whirr and snap of a printer is the only sound in a small study room at the Jesse Smith Memorial Library on Tinkham Lane as 23-year-old Rabbi Aryeh Laufer patiently waits for another set of pages to be done so he can feed the printer again. Later, he will bring the pages to be cut and bound to make 100 books.

Central Park Service Offers Rosh Hashanah Refuge

The sound of the shofar will resonate throughout New York’s Central Park for the Jewish New Year.

Hundreds of New Yorkers will band together Sept. 29 to hear the 100 traditional blasts from a ram’s horn in a wholly untraditional way as they unite with fellow Jews for a special Rosh Hashanah moment amidst the surroundings of Central Park.
