Pictures from Katowice Shabbaton
Shavei Israel held its first ever weekend Shabbaton in Katowice, Poland at the end of October. Seventy people from throughout Poland (and a few special guests from Israel, including Shavei Israel Chairman Michael Freund) attended the 3-day seminar, including 40 from the Katowice community itself. The highlight of the weekend was the bar mitzvah of a 16-year-old boy who only discovered his family was Jewish a few years ago.
Here is a selection of pictures from the weekend seminar.
And here are a few pictures from Karol’s bar mitzvah.
