Throughout the course of the life of every Torah-abiding Jew, there will come a time when he or she will be in need of immediate Halachic guidance. Sometimes it will be due to a joyous occasion, such as the birth of a child, and other times it will be due to a tragic event, such as the death of a loved one. Unfortunately, in such instances, people often encounter difficulty when trying to reach the Halachic authority to whom they are accustomed to addressing their queries. This is especially the case at certain times throughout the year, such as Erev Shabbos and Erev Yom Tov.
This is where the ‘Halacha Hotline’ of the Kollel Bais Horoa of Flatbush steps in. Throughout nearly the entire day, every day of the year, the yungeleit of the Kollel Bais Horoa are on-call to answer shailos from all around the world. Some of the yungeleit even go to sleep with their phones! Although the Kollel is situated in Flatbush, NY, it receives calls from far off states such as Texas, as well as from Europe and Eretz Yisroel. The moreh horoas are known for their pleasant manner and keep all of the shailos completely confidential. The Kollel’s yungeleit have also developed numerous areas of Halachic expertise, such as the writing of legal Halachic wills, end-of-life directives, powers of attorney and financial partnerships that avoid the prohibition of Interest.
Led by Harav Tzvi Spira, Shlita, the Kollel not only provides an environment in which Talmidei Chachomim can dedicate themselves to in-depth Torah study, but also serves as a Beis Din and a vibrant Shul. The Kollel is known for its welcoming atmosphere where everyone feels at home. For its full-time mispallelim as well as for visitors passing through, Kollel Bais Horoa is truly a one-stop-shop for all of one’s spiritual needs.
After fifteen years of continued growth, it is time for the Kollel to be housed in a building of its own. As we embark upon this building campaign, aimed at enhancing the experience of all those who take part in the Kollel’s activities, we ask you to open your hearts and take part in this momentous endeavor.
