Mitzvot in
the Park
and the MitzvahBob Tour SHALOM FESTIVAL '07 Sunday,
August 5th, Congress Park, Saratoga
Two brochures prepared especially
for this year's Shalom Festival: "Springing Forth" featured refreshing Torah
sources about water, and The MitzvahBob Tour explained the background of
each of the Jewish SpongeBob themed characters displayed at the Festival.
Rabbi Abba and the MitzvahBob
with the Kosher theme. The creative and lively MitzvahBob characters were
designed and built by Maimonides High / Albany Mesivta students under the
guidance of Reb Itche Gordon.
Many took advantage of this
special Mitzvah opportunity, and put on Tefillin near the Tefillin-themed
MitzvahBob in the park, and for one person this was his first time to ever
wear Tefillin!
