Pidyon Kaparot Campaign

Ohr Torah Stone’s Metivta Hesder Yeshiva  is a unique beit midrash for men’s Torah study and social action in the Gallilee. The Metivta combines intense Torah study in the beit midrash with personal work on the body mind and spirit as well as independent living and social work within the community. The program focuses on a range of areas requiring and educating toward diligence, empathy, and flexibility in both thought and practice: preparation for life. Ultimately, the program believes that the combination of various challenges and disciplines will instill feelings of contentment and fulfillment, and intensify each student’s acquaintance with himself and with his own religious identity. The Metivta’s curriculum features one to two years of Torah study combined with community service, followed by full active duty in Israel’s Defense Forces; a final four months of study and volunteer work cap the Metivta experience.  Shana Tova U'Metuka and Ketiva V'Chatima Tova!
