In 2 weeks, a kiruv explosion is about to take place.

Mommy can we start eating kosher food?

How can I see to it that my children grow up to be like these Bais Yaakov girls?

From now on Shabbos is Shabbos.

A university student begins to put on teffilin – that�s a life altering Shabbos. A Young professional�becomes Shomer Shabbos – that�s a life altering Shabbos. A family moves to the frum community – that�s�a life altering Shabbos. For five days, 400 yidden will be immersed in the Kulanu Yachad Gala Seminar�atmosphere and have the opportunity to experience our beautiful mesorah. The passionate words of�Rabbi Dr. Akiva Tatz encapsulates the incredible impact of the Kulanu Yachad Shabbaton experience:

Kiruv around the world is reaching hundreds and thousands of people. Rarely is there a situation that�changes lives at this magnitude. At Kulanu Yachad, there are real results. There is an unbelievable�percentage of Yidden who actually change their lives. Look around the country, you�ll find chashuva�talmidim, healthy frum families, even community leaders that have reached their level of commitment�to Torah and have inspired others as a direct result of their Kulanu Yachad experience!

Kulanu Yachad actualizes the tireless year round efforts of mekarvim throughout the world. �Our whole�year goal is to bring people to your event. That�s where they become frum!� Last year, Shabbos Parshas�Shemos was a transformative Shabbos for the more than 400 Yidden who congregated in the Sheraton�Westport Chalet Hotel in St. Louis, Missouri. Not only was the first-class hotel transformed into a warm,�vibrant Jewish community, but every single person from participant to volunteer staff members left the�Shabbos a changed person!

This year the Gala event will begin on Thursday, 22 Kislev/December 22 and B�ezras Hashem, Jews from�all walks of life and from cities across the country will gather at the hotel and be warmly welcomed by�the volunteer staff and Rabbi Yari (as Rabbi Yaroslawitz is fondly called by one and all). The next 24-hour�period will be set for learning, lectures and Shabbos preparation in a fun and pleasant atmosphere.

Something for Everyone

World Class lecturers, many who themselves were moser nefesh in their lives for Torah, will be flown in�from Eretz Yisroel and England specifically for the Shabbaton. They include the much sought-after expert�in sholom bayis and chinuch yeladim, Rav Simcha Cohen from Bnei Brak, Rabbi Dovid Gottlieb of Ohr�Someyach, Rabbi Akiva Tatz from JLE England, and Mrs Chana Levitan from Neve Yerushalayim will be�leading the lady�s programs. Their inspiring shiurim along with unmatched warmth, singing and dancing�will B�ezras Hashem once again, bring yiddishe neshamas once lost from Torah, back L�Avinu�Shebashamyim.

A Combination of Results: Both Rapid and Long-Term

The Kulanu Yachad seminars in the past have resulted in both long-term and rapid results. There are�countless examples of people who accept upon themselves the observance of numerous mitzvos, even�before the weekend is over! Whether through major commitments such as accepting to observe�kashrus, keep Shabbos or more �minor� commitments such as wearing tzitzis, there isn�t an attendee�that isn�t motivated to do more. One attendee even broke up with his gentile fianc� by the third day of�the weekend! An Israeli husband who reluctantly joined the seminar only at the insistence of his wife�was asking by melave malka, �Do you know what we can get at Starbucks that is kosher?� The attendees�are known to return home with a love for Yiddishkeit, a bren which continues to light up their lives.

Kiruv institutions in communities that participate in the K.Y.I. seminars have noted significant increases�in regular attendance from the first Shabbos after the seminar. Moreover, numerous new kiruv centers�and shuls have been founded or services greatly expanded as a direct result of K.Y.I. seminars.

Rabbi Yari asks all of us that are privileged to live lives filled with kedusha, to invite neighbors, co-�workers or relatives, which might not yet have that zechus, to join in this changing Shabbos. Please be�mispallel, Rabbi Yari adds, that the upcoming seminar once again, results in a tremendous Kiddush�Sheim Shamayim as Hashem�s children return back home.
