I know that a real blog would have provided live-blogging of the AJOP convention. Alas this blog is not of that caliber. However, for those who are interested, I will provide some highlights of the convention over the next few days.
The highlights of the conference included
Rabbi Michel Twerski of Milwalkee
Rabbi Mordechai Twerski, formerly of Denver, now of Brooklyn
Rabbi Dovid Cohen of congregation Gvul Yaavetz, Brooklyn
Rabbi Tzvi Hersh Weinreb, Executive Vice-President of the Orthodox Union
These men were not highlights because they are well known. They were the highlights of the convention, including Shabbos, because they were simply incredible. I would recommend this extended weekend to people who have no involvement in outreach whatsoever just for the pure spiritual and intellectual pleasure and growth that these people provide.
More later.
