The Mitzvah Tank Works !!! A 42 year old secular Jew, who only got Bar mitvah'd in english because he never went to hebrew school was walking down South Beach Miami when he was approached to lay T'Fillin. As he did this, his Christian wife took pictures amazed because she had never seen this before. Afterwards, he walked away and laughed about it with his wife and brother at what a funny thing to do on South Beach. Fastforward 4 years later , I was recently re bar mitzvah'd 3 months ago in Hebrew, have been faithfully keeping shabbat , going to Temple every Fri night , attended Torah study and I am on the board at the Temple and Vice President of the Brotherhood, wear a Kippah ful time and wear a Talis every morning while saying the Shemonei Esrei, and my Christian wife just converted to Judaism a few weeks ago. NEVER UNDER ESTIMATE THE POWER OF THE MITZVAH TANK !!! Reply

thank you ! As the grateful recipient of this special "favor" all I can say is a heartfelt thank you to the Rabbis who spent a hot humid day last may at the Israel Independence Day helping people put on tefillin! I was so moved I went to the credit union got a loan and bought a pair of tefillin for myself! After 7 payments of 160 they are finally paid off Thank G-d!
You can never tell what your actions will accomplish thank you! Reply
