2 1 Shalom, The Midrash tells a story of a prince, who while hunting in a forest, saw a child playing a most heartwarming melody on his flute. He put down his rifle and sat on a tree stump to saturate his soul with the beauty of this melody. Eventually the music ceased, and the mesmerized prince dashed to find the child so that he might hear this beautiful melody if but once more. He searched the forest but the child was nowhere to be found. His heart yearned for this sweet melody and the rest of his days were spent searching for the special tune that he had heard. Rabbi Benjy & Hinda Silverman Co-Directors, Chabad of the Rivertowns Embedded deeply within the Jewish soul is an unquenchable thirst for the precious music of Torah knowledge, Jewish family life and spirituality. It has been compared to a spark within our soul just waiting to be ignited. It is our goal at Chabad and the Rivertowns Jewish Academy to find the tune that is music to the ears of each individual and IGNITE THE SPARK WITHIN YOUR SOUL. I invite you and your family to join us, as we explore our beautiful and rich Jewish heritage and together we will create a most inspiring symphony of music- music for our souls and spirit. Sincerely, Rabbi Benjy & Hinda Silverman Co-Directors
