Crown Heights Welcomes Its First Dedicated Sefer Torah in Memory of Chaia Mushka Stiefelmann
In Crown Heights, the 94 Beis Moshe community celebrated a Hachnosas Sefer Torah dedicated to Chaia Mushka Stiefelmann z"l, a young shlucha from Brazil who died at 28. The Sefer Torah, donated by the Nigri and Berkes families, marked the community's first dedicated Torah as hakafos and a seudas mitzvah unfolded; the procession paused at the future shul address at 546 E New York Ave as fundraising continues to secure a permanent home for 94 Beis Moshe.
