``He who writes his own Torah can be considered as if he received it at Mount Sinai`` (Talmud)
We are pleased to share more reflections by participants in the September 14th letter fill-in programme:
``I found it very moving. Our letter was ``Shin`` and the Rabbi gave us a short d`var torah about ``shin`` and how it can represent peace through compromise.`` Jerry and Dianne Gula
``To write a letter in the Torah gives a sense of a deep family connection with the people of Israel and the Torah. What a moving experience.`` Channa Sargon
``An honour and a mitzvah to be part of a tradition so rich. To be able to be a part of the process of passing this Torah on to my children to listen to in Beth Tikvah where I grew up. Honouring my grandparents Louis & Pearl Schwartz.`` Rosalyn Mogani
``It`s an emotional experience to participate in this event. The fact that my wife, my two daughters and two of our grandchildren were all with me added to meaning for me. I am sure that when I open the Torah in the years to come, I will reflect on the meaning of the letters and how they compare to the two letters in ``Bemidbar`` which we wrote today.`` Mel Finkelstein
TORAH L`TIKVAH FUNDS
How will the funds raised through Torah L’Tikvah be used? In recognition of Rabbi Allen’s devoted service to the Beth Tikvah membership, The Rabbi Allen Endowment Fund for Education has been established.
