“For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given” Isaiah 9:6

 

 

Levi Yosef Levy was born to Sol and Rayah on April 23, 2006. He is 6 ponds and 11 ounces of long-awaited joy. We were in labor for over twenty hours. It was long and at times painful…for Rayah, too. This birth was an auspicious moment for us because seven years ago to the day my father, Levi, was laid to rest on the Sunday after Passover. When I called my mother on Sunday, I told her “Levi was born this morning.”

We invite family and friends to share our happiness next Sunday at the Brit Milah (circumcision) of our son. The ceremony will take place in Pennsylvania at the home of our dear friend Rabbi Mehira Bat Sarah. The mohel will be Rabbi Baruch Yehudah.  A tasty reception will be provided. Although your love and support is what we need and appreciate most, if you wish to send a gift please visit our registry at BabiesRus.com.

 

 

 

 

 

Directions to the home of Rabbi Mehira Bat Sarah

The map provided assumes one is coming from New York City. However, you may easily insert your actual starting location. Her home is in a gated community, which is why Rue St. Jacques does not appear on most maps. There will be balloons alerting you to the location.

See a short slide show of our baby journey.
Please confirm if you are planning to attend the circumcision.
