CHESHVON 2022
The YAYOE family will come together to thank ה׳ for protecting us and and bestowing his חסד upon us during this unprecedented period.
How did we do it? Our success was virtually guaranteed by our over 25-years-long dedication to the core principles of daas Torah, humility, inclusion, and mutual respect, principles that create trust. On this foundation of mutual trust, we created what we feel to have been our finest hour.
Complementing these efforts, HaShem sent three special advisors to guide us in navigating the "fluid situations" that we faced daily.
