Description
Sixteen professionals from the United States, Canada, Europe and Australia traveled to Eretz Yisrael for Pirchei Shoshnim's final smicha test. They joined Pirchei Shoshanim's Shulchan Aruch Project between two and three years ago and have been receiving weekly lessons online since, which they study at their own time and pace. The group spent an uplifting Shabbos together in the Old City, during which shiurim to review the program were delivered. On Sunday they took a ten hour exam, followed on Monday by a semichah ceremony at the Kosel, where semichah was conferred on each of the graduates (Refael Ovadia / Kuvien Images)
