Shomray Torah & of Capital Chabad, announces Binyamin's name. Visible on the right is R' Chanaya Rosenblum, who served as MC for the Brit. The Mohel, Rabbi Krohn from Monsey, holds both baby boys together shortly after their circumcision.
MAZAL TOV, MAZAL TOV!

Dan ('00) and Atara ('01) have been very dedicated and involved students at Shabbos House, and in the UAlbany Jewish Community. It is truly a great honor and pleasure to be able to celebrate the Simcha on their children's Brit at Shabbos House!

The Brit Milah was held in Shabbos House, during the last daylight hours towards the evening. The house was filled with family (Rochester, Brooklyn and beyond) community friends and students, as well as alumni who returned to celebrate this joyous occasion.

Following the Brit Milah itself, everyone enjoyed a spread of deli, salads and delicious homemade cakes and cookies by Mrs. Marzouk (Sr.) from Rochester NY.

Mazal Tov to the entire mishpacha, the SUNY Albany student community, and the 'downtown' community where Dan and Atara have their home and are active members. May these little twins be a great source of Nachas!

Dan's "brothers" of the AEPi fraternity (Alpha Nu at SUNY - UAlbany) L-R: Daniel Muth, Mike Lewis, John Palker, Rich Wachtel, Andrew Genger, Steve Schiff, Arie Lipnick and Steve Orfali.
