[Aspaqlaria] Mussar Kallah VII -- Phoenix -- October 25th (a reminder)

Thu Oct 8 12:46:05 PDT 2009

Thanks! Good to talk today. The thing about learning Mussar, I have  
learned, is that the group leader or teacher has as much to learn as  
the students, if not more. When I first asked Rabbi Perr if I could  
have his ok to teach a course, he said, "Go ahead. You'll learn so  
much." True.
