Strachman Torah Dedication

In Jewish tradition, a Torah is welcomed to the community as a new bride and groom are celebrated by their families and friends. The Torah is introduced under a traditional marriage canopy (Chupah) and is accompanied by music and festivities. Every community member is an integral part of the celebration - just as a family member is to the wedding.

Please join us in writing history by dedicating a part of the Torah and by participating in the festive celebration. On June 22nd, a skilled scribe will handwrite the last letters of the Torah right here in our West Parkland Community.

The Torah Celebration is FREE and open to the entire community. RSVP requested.

The Torah is our most precious item, sustaining the Jewish people throughout history. It tells us that every Jew, regardless of background or knowledge, has an equal share in the Torah.

The 613th and final mitzvah in the Torah is that every Jew writes his own Sefer Torah. Our Rabbis have taught that one can fulfill this mitzvah by dedicating a portion or even one letter in a Torah.

Both children and adults will be given an opportunity to participate in this mitzvah. For dedications of $180 and above, the Sofer will write your letter in the Torah on the day of the celebration, and a beautiful certificate will be provided. 

This is also an opportunity to honor someone by donating in their name.
