“Wrapping it Up-The Halacha of Women donning Tefillin.”

Recently a number of stories have appeared in the media relating to issue of young women, some whom are not from orthodox backgrounds, wishing put on tefillin during services
at their modern orthodox high school’s daily services.  In an effort to clarify what modern orthodoxy
has to say on this issue, the Young Israel of Harrison New York (YIOH) will be
sponsoring a lecture and holding a discussion presented by its spiritual leader
Rabbi Yaakov Bienenfeld.  The lecture is
entitled “Wrapping it Up-The Halacha of Women donning Tefillin.”  It will
be held on this coming Monday night, February 3rd at 7PM at the Young Israel of Harrison,
91 Union Avenue, Harrison NY. 

Please
note that if the YIOH parking lot is filled, additional parking for the event

is available across the street at the Louis M. Kline Middle School.
