Post-Shalhevet and Moreshet Summer Seminars
Overview
Neve Yerushalayim is once again offering two exciting and challenging summer programs for seminary graduates: Post-Shalhevet and Moreshet Seminars. Both programs will take place on Neve Yerushalayim's beautiful campus in Har Nof, Jerusalem from Tuesday, June 22nd - Tuesday, July 20th, 2010.Post-Shalhevet Seminar
The aim of the Post-Shalhevet seminar is to provide continuing education for the Bais Yaakov Seminary graduate who previously studied in Eretz Yisroel and then returned to her country of origin. The program offers the student the opportunity to renew her seminary idealism and to experience the best that Eretz Yisroel has to offer in a more realistic light. Students in the program are challenged concurrently in the areas of textual learning, hashkafa, and mussar.This summer's 15th annual Post-Shalhevet seminar draws upon Yerushalayim's finest teachers to produce a varied, high-quality, and intensive course of learning. Included in our faculty are: Rabbi Dovid Kass (Director of Post-Shalhevet and Moreshet), Rabbi Dovid Abramov, Rabbi Nosson Geisler, Rabbi Yaakov Marcus, Rabbi Meir Treibitz, and Mrs. Tziporah Heller. In addition, there is a fascinating array of guest speakers. It is very difficult for young women to take four weeks out of their busy summer schedule to come to study in Eretz Yisroel. They have to overcome the pressures of pursuing shidduchim, earning money, taking summer college courses, etc. Those who make the effort to participate in the Post-Shalhevet seminar, however, learn a great deal and gain tremendous inspiration and chizuk. They are able to overcome the debilitating effects of living and studying in Chutz LaAretz and succeed in maintaining their high spiritual level.
Moreshet Seminar
The Moreshet Seminar is primarily aimed at Post-Shalhevet graduates, full-time mechanchot, and kiruv workers who wish to fight the spiritual holocaust afflicting Klal Yisroel. The program was inspired by the success of the Moreshet Year program and by the renowned one-week Winter Seminar for teachers.In the Moreshet Seminar, students study Jewish philosophy, hashkafa and kiruv techniques. They acquire knowledge and skills to do effective outreach work. As a result of the program, students return to their country of origin inspired and motivated to bring their fellow Jews closer to a Torah way of life.
The teaching staff of the summer program draws from the regular Moreshet faculty: Rabbi Dovid Kass, Rabbi Avrohom Edelstein (Director of Heritage House), Rabbi Zecharya Greenwald, Rabbi Eliezer Liff, Rabbi Yaakov Marcus, Rabbi Meir Treibitz, Mrs. Tziporah Heller, and many others.
