New Yeshiva!

Wow is Hashem great!

In the end, I AM having a yeshiva!!

Really:).

But a yeshiva without headaches. Without having to recruit and compete with other yeshivos [how can Hashem be happy when his children compete against each other], without having to be sent away by high schools being told that new yeshivos aren't welcome, without having to fund raise in order to cover expenses involved in laying the groundwork for the yeshiva and then to receive an email from a donor demanding his money back [which comes out of my pocket:)], without having to worry about food, dorms, tiyulim, salaries, etc. etc. and yet more etc.

Sound like a fantasy? It's real. The yeshiva already opened up!!

Really:).

It's called "Yeshivas Skype-Elchanan". The concept is very simple: A man or men skypes with me, we open up a sefer and learn. Everybody gets to choose their own subject matter whether it be gemara bava metzia, sfas emes al hatorah or virtually [pun intended] anything else. There is no charge [for now]. Just LEARNING TORAH li-shem shomayim. Now, when you open up the dictionary and find the word "AWESOME" there will be a description of "Yeshivas Skype-Elchanan". Enrollment is almost full already. All one has to do to be accepted is to be male [any age], Jewish and have access to a computer [until enrollment closes]. The idea is the brainchild of my close friend and confidante HaRav Yoel Rakovsky Shlita and Baruch Hashem we have already started.
