Description

Imagine a time when the world you know crumbles overnight, and you're thrust into an unknown future. This is the narrative of Chemda Jacobs, a Persian Jew and the driving force behind Torah Nursery in Cleveland, Ohia.  Chemda's childhood under the Shah's tranquil reign in Iran, the shattering revolution of 1978, and  how Rabbi Illulian, Rabbi Shea Hecht and Rabbi JJ Hecht of the NCFJE spearheaded the brave exodus of Jewish youth, offers a beacon of hope amidst the chaos. As Chemda draws parallels between her past and the challenges Jews face in Western societies today, we're reminded of how belief in Hashem and the power of Torah are the only things constant in our lives. Chemda's perspective is not just a reflection of a historical truth, but also a reminder for women all over the world to access our Bitachon deep within ourselves.Support the show
