Declared Rabbi Kalinsky, “The members of YINBH are as thrilled to welcome Rabbi Steven and Yael Weil to celebrate the Yom Tov of Shavuot in our community, as much as the Weils are thrilled to be back in Beverly Hills! The Weils are no strangers to YINBH. During their decade at Beth Jacob, Yael and Rabbi Weil frequently gave shiurim and lectures in members’ homes, nurturing and developing meaningful friendships that continue, even though Yael and Rabbi Weil now live on the East Coast.”
