Trippple Issue - Tzav-HaGadol - Pesach - Shmini

April 3-18, 2009 - 10-24 Nissan

This issue covers the 27th, 28th and 29th Shabbatot (of 50) of 5769

The Board and Staff of OU Israel and the OU Israel Center extend their gratitude and appreciation to Rabbi Dr. Tzvi Hersh Weinreb for his years of dedicated service to Am Yisrael and specifically to the Orthodox Union and NCSY in his capacity as Executive Vice President of the Orthodox Union. During his tenure the Jewish world was the recipient of words of inspiration, sensitive leadership and personal example of integrity as a renowned spokesman of Torah values at home and in wider public forums. We look forward to continued cooperation with Rabbi Weinreb in his position as Executive Vice President Emeritus.

We extend our warmest wishes to the incoming Executive Vice President, Rabbi Steve Weil, who is taking up his new position at the helm of the Orthodox Union. With his extensive background in the rabbinate and communal work, we know that the coming years will be a period of action and growth, especially in era that offers continued challenges to the Jewish people, both physically and spiritually. Under his guidance, we look forward to seeing the critical programs of the Orthodox Union around the world, and particularly in Israel, continue to grow in quality and quantity.

B'NISSAN NIGALU, B'NISSAN ATIDIN LIYGA'EL (Masechet Rosh HaShana)
