HJC is inviting all men in the community to our Wednesday night Beis Medrash program, and a new Ramchal shiur.
We'll be learning the classic sefer Mesilas Yesharim right after Ma'ariv. Our plan is to divide the time between chavrusa learning and a short shiur. 
A chance for friends and future friends to get together and learn, and maybe nosh a little.
We would love to see you there. 
We will be starting Chapter 3. 
Sponsorships are available as well, whether or not you can make it.
