Thank You to the Mother of Torah Giants
Each and every week for the last six years I pour my heart and soul into letting all of you know what is going on at Aish.

A Young Woman Went to the Doctor, and You Will not Believe What Happened There.
(Hebrew) “לא ידעתי מה זה בדיוק יהדות”, מספרת ג’יין ל’אש התורה’. “ולמען האמת, הרבה יותר הטריד אותי שלא אוכל להישאר עם החברים.”
A one in a billion chance: What are the chances that the Dr. would find a lump right in the place I had randomly pointed to? I was petrified. How could this happen? It was utterly illogical….
Love From Israel
Much love from Israel. Although I am working at Aish, most of the country is on vacation. It is fascinating to see the hotels that are usually packed with tourists filled with Israelis who have chosen not to travel abroad this summer due to Covid-19.
