Joyous Celebration for Torah at Moscow Children’s Home

The Beit Yeladim orphanage, run by Shliach Rabbi Menachem Mendel Gol, celebrated a joyous Siyum Sefer Torah in Moscow’s north, with prominent members from across the community joining to celebrate this special occasion. 

In a joyous event, a new Sefer Torah was dedicated at the Beit Yeladim orphanage in Moscow run by Shliach Rabbi Menachem Mendel Gol. The Siyum Sefer Torah saw many from across the community come to celebrate the completion of the Sefer Torah, with local community members, Mechanchim, and prominent members of Anash attending this momentous occasion. 

As the last words of the Sefer Torah were being written, the crowd burst into lively singing and dancing. The Sefer Torah procession led to the newly dedicated Sefer Torah being placed in the Aron HaKodesh situated within the orphanage compound. The orphanage, located in Moscow’s north and founded under the guidance of Rabbi Gol, serves as a second home to dozens of Jewish children, many from challenging backgrounds across Russia.

The institution has grown in recent years to meet the increasing needs of Jewish children in the region. With a dedicated team, the orphanage provides not only material support but also gently guides each child in their Yiddishkiet, helping each child grow at their level in a caring and affectionate manner through the dedicated teachers and staff. Many graduates of the home have gone on to build their own Jewish homes and some have even become Shluchim themselves.
