Memorial Lecture in Memory of Pess Epstein a’h
Shalom Task Force held an observance of the second yahrzeit of Mrs. Pess Epstein, a”h, on Motzoei Shabbos, October 31, 2009, at 8:30 p.m at Lander College for Men, 75-31 150th Street, Kew Gardens Hills, NY. Mrs. Epstein, a founding member, devoted herself selflessly to the organization for many years until her passing.
The observance was attended by over 400 community members and featured a lecture by Rabbi Dr. Tzvi Hersh Weinreb, Executive Vice President Emeritus, OU, entitled “After the Chuppah… Building a Lasting Marriage in a Disposable World.” The lecture addressed the expectations Orthodox Jewish parents have for their children who are getting married and the ways couples can cope with problems in the early stages of marriage.
This invaluable talk is now available for purchase by calling 718-252-5274.
Since 1993, Shalom Task Force has been a leader in healthy marriage education and programs that promote peaceful relationships between family members. Shalom Task Force maintains a Hotline and offers extensive preventive educational programs to youth, singles and engaged couples.
