Rosh Chodesh Elul: Torah & Learning at the Rosh Yeshiva's House

August 26, 2025

The talmidim of Yesodei Yisrael began Elul zman with shacharis, a beautiful and elaborate Rosh Chodesh breakfast and morning shiur at the home of Rav and Rebbetzin Kronenberg, setting a tone of inspiration, reflection, and connection for the new school year.

The morning opened with Shacharis overlooking the stunning hills of Beit Shemesh, followed by a delicious breakfast spread and uplifting words of Torah and chabura learning with the talmidim's designated shiur & Rebbi. To the boys’ surprise, each received a personalized Yesodei Yisrael mug with a heartfelt letter inside that their parents had pre-sent from home, a reminder of the love and pride their families carry with them as they embark on this new chapter of learning.

A special thank you to the Wertheim family, the Newman family, and Dr. Dovid Bienenfeld (Shaya’s Zaidy) for generously sponsoring this meaningful breakfast.

It was the perfect way to welcome Elul zman!
