Families of Zichron Menachem children, ZM volunteers
and Sherut Leumi girls came to the Liberty Bell Park in Jerusalem for
this festive occasion. Zichron Menachem was honored with a traditional
round of dancing with Torah scrolls.
Celebrants danced in swirling circles with a Torah scroll that was recently
donated to Zichron Menachem by the Avnery family, in memory of their daughter
Renana. Mr. Motty Avnery, father of the late Renana, was given the honor
of dancing with this brand-new scroll. Children were lifted onto the shoulders
of Zamzam volunteers, and Jerusalem was “full of rejoicing and happiness.”
After the extended Simchat Torah dancing, all the ZM guests were invited
to a festive dinner in Jerusalem at the “Shipudei Hagefen”
restaurant, where they were taken for a surprise birthday party for a
young Zamzam girl, four-year old Tamar. The meal came to an exciting conclusion
with more treats: Tamar’s birthday cake was accompanied by sparklers
and everyone singing “Happy Birthday!”
We will be celebrating Tamar’s birthday next week in a larger format
at the ZM Day Center, with guest performer “Matok the Magician”
performing magic tricks for Tamar, her guests and the Zamzam Sherut Leumi
volunteers.
