Students and Survivors Connect, Celebrate Recovered Torahs
The Holocaust Survivors Club at Century Village in Boca Raton, Florida, had a special treat at its monthly meeting in October when 10 local college students from the Chabad Student Center visited their meeting.
The Boca Raton-based Chabad Student Center serves students at Florida Atlantic University (FAU), Lynn University and Palm Beach State College in Boca Raton.
The meeting took place at Temple Beth Shalom in Century Village on Sunday, Oct. 11, with about 60 Century Village Holocaust survivors present.
Rabbi Boruch Shmuel Liberow — co-director of the Chabad Student Center with his wife, Rivka Rochel — said: “We wanted to do some community service so we set up this visit. We wanted our college students to socialize with the Holocaust survivors to hear their stories and learn from them.”
Making the meeting even more special was the Chabad Student Center bringing two of the three Torahs stolen from Eastern European Jews by the Nazis during the Holocaust which have recently been brought to Boca Raton.
These three Torahs are part of the 118 Torahs stolen from Eastern European Jews by the Nazis which were recently discovered in Russia.
