Refuah Shelaimah for Rabbi Stulberger

We would like to share that our Rosh HaYeshiva, Rabbi Stulberger שליט״א, is scheduled to undergo a planned heart bypass surgery this Thursday morning. We will be posting updates throughout the next few days at this post.

As you likely well know, Rabbi Stulberger has devoted his life to Torah, to his talmidim, and to the Valley Torah community with extraordinary mesirus nefesh. At this time, we ask everyone to please join together in davening for a refuah sheleima for Avrohom ben Leah Golda.

When a community unites in tefillah, Torah and maasim tovim, it creates a powerful force in Shamayim. Below are three meaningful ways in which each of us can take part. We encourage everyone to do one, some, or all of them:

Tefillah:

There is a shared Tehillim reading so that Sefer Tehillim can be completed together, hopefully many times: Visit the TehilimYahad link to say a chapter now.

We will have a special minyan for Shacharis on Thursday at 8:00 at the Boys Campus followed by joint Tehillim.

Torah:

Rabbi Stulberger has shared Torah with countless students and listeners over many years. Please take some time to learn Torah in his zechus. You can visit Rabbi Stulberger’s TorahAnytime Page and listen to one of his shiurim right now.

Tzedakah:

Rabbi Stulberger has devoted his life to Valley Torah High School, its students and alumni. Making a donation in his zechus is exceptionally meaningful.
