In February we hosted an Olami Soho group from Argentina led by Rabbi Dani Kowal. This special group of young students, ages 17-20, stayed at The Brownstone for 10 days, toured NYC, and enjoyed a beautiful Shabbaton in Lawrence. There, they experienced their first Shabbat, which included a Friday night Oneg where they spoke about their experiences, some students moved to tears. On Shalosh Seudos they gathered again, enjoying an inspiring speaker.
Said Rabbi Kowal: “All the kids agreed that Shabbat was the best part of the trip! The boys came back saying they don’t want to take off their kipa! It really was magical.”
