Jerusalem, Israel (May 2009) Over one decade ago, a dedicated Jewish outreach rabbi set out on a mission: to connect Jewish souls to their heritage via a personal learning partner. His kernel of inspiration, so simple in theory, yet so complex in design, soon blossomed into Partners in Torah, the revolutionary Torah study program. To date, this international organization has connected more than 30,000 intellectually curious Jews by phone or in person with custom-picked partners to match their personalities and goals. A division of Torah Umesorah, Partners in Torah has made Jewish knowledge accessible to all Jews at no cost, and regardless of their location, background, or denomination. Now, Targum Press joins Partners in Torah with the release of Partners in Torah: Partners in Eternity: The Personal Stories, the Life-Changing Encounters, a remarkable testimonial to the power of a study partner, and to the incredible bond that is created when two Jews learn together. Compiled by founder and director Rabbi Eli Gewirtz, it offers a glimpse into the lives of hundreds of partners as they find common ground in the Torah's timeless wisdom and jointly discover how their lives are immeasurably enriched by their Torah partnerships. In this magnificent collection, you'll meet people from all over and from across the spectrum. You'll read of Jews who stumbled across their partners and their heritage in the most unexpected places and ways. The conservative Rabbi whose worldview was revolutionized by a chasidic scholar, the young woman who found her way to Judaism through Catholic friends who met a nice Jewish guy in Home Depot their fascinating individual odysseys along with hundreds more are all vividly portrayed, in a warm and personal way. An inspiring journal of incredible journeys, Partners in Torah: Partners in Eternity is the voice of Jews reclaiming their heritage; it's the voice that shows how a weekly learning session can become a transformative dynamic of two Jewish souls learning and growing together. --- Messages and opinions expressed on Hasafran are those of the individual author and are not necessarily endorsed by the Association of Jewish Libraries (AJL) =========================================================== Submissions for Ha-Safran, send to: hasaf...@osu.edu SUBscribing, SIGNOFF commands send to: Listproc @ lists.acs.ohio-state.edu Questions, problems, complaints, compliments;-) send to: galron.1 @ osu.edu Ha-Safran Archives: Current: http://www.mail-archive.com/hasafran%40lists.acs.ohio-state.edu/maillist.html History: http://www.mail-archive.com/hasafran%40lists.acs.ohio-state.edu/history.html AJL HomePage http://www.JewishLibraries.org
