by COLlive Editor · COLliveThe community is invited to a joyous Hachnasas Sefer Torah on Sunday, June 21, 2026, 6 Tammuz 5786, celebrating the completion of a Sefer Torah dedicated in memory of Yisroel Shlomo Frank obm.
Dedicated by the Frank family, the Sefer Torah stands as a living tribute to Yisroel’s memory, bringing additional Torah, Mitzvos, and Yiddishkeit into the world for generations to come.
Twenty-seven years after Yisroel’s petirah, this special Sefer Torah serves as a meaningful tribute to his life and the values he embodied. Family and friends remember Yisroel’s gentle smile, sweet personality, and the happiness he brought to those around him.
“We wanted to honor Yisroel in a way that would continue bringing light into the world,” said his father, Avraham Frank. “A Sefer Torah is eternal. Every time it is read from and every mitzvah inspired by it will help carry his legacy forward for generations to come.”
Following the Hachnasas Sefer Torah celebration, the Torah will be welcomed by the Oholei Torah Children’s Minyan, where it will help inspire a new generation of children with a love of Torah and mitzvos.
The celebration will begin with Kesivas HaOsiyos, giving participants the opportunity to take part in the completion of the Torah’s final letters. A festive procession through the streets of Crown Heights will follow, accompanied by lively music and dancing, culminating with Hakafos and refreshments.
This special celebration will bring together family, friends, and community members to honor Yisroel’s memory and share in the joy of welcoming a new Sefer Torah.
May this Sefer Torah serve as a source of blessing and inspiration for generations to come, and may we merit to celebrate together with the coming of Moshiach and the complete Geulah speedily in our days.
