Jews of all types from all over the world, guests of the KMR Pesach program in Banff, Alberta, came together for a birchas hachama ceremony in the spectacular Canadian Rockies.
Surrounded by majestic snow-covered mountains, Rabbi Mendel Polter of Monsey, NY led the ceremony and Rabbi Simcha Werner addressed the crowd which included renowned lecturer Manis Friedman and Los Angeles shliach Yehoshua Gordon.
After reciting the Bracha together, a spontaneous dance broke out among the particpants.
It seems to be pretty well attended by litvaks also
Heaven on earth!
Baruch and Shimmy Werner are amazing.
What a kiddush hashem to finally see a pesach program that has some class and toichen unlike all the foolishness of south florida
I was at lake louise a few summers ago at the werners program…. SPECTACULAR!
Doesn’t Eitan Goldberg do the music for kmr pesach? I remember him last year at the four seasons. Nice kum-zitz at the bar on the grand piano
The Werners alway try to supply the best. Go Shimmie and Freidie!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We are all very proud of you. Keep up the wonderful work. Next year in Yerusholayim!!!!!!!
I’m staying in bannf. Let me tell you the werners are always top class. Last year four seasons whistler. This year fairmont bannff springs. They have David scharf who heads the event design for the kinnus running the culinary side of things and mannis Friedman is amazing
It must be really top standard kashrus at that hotel if rabbi Friedman is there
Hi Shuey!!!!
Any more pictures from chol hamoed concerts?
Indeed it is.
The live music by Aharon Frank made the whole event!
Unbelievable how gorgeos that place is
Is that CGI NY Learning Director Moshe Frank? I heard he was directing the Childrens programing at the Fairmont over Yom Tov.
The Werners seem to really put together the classiest Pesach destinations with top-notch ruchnius and gashmius.
Wish I was there… Maybe next year Ill save up enough money to go.
If so then it looks like it was a real achdus’dike Pesach!
nice 2 c u Rabbi Polter
