Praying at the Wall

Seeach Sod students visiting the Kotel is no big news. What was a remarkable event was when Mrs. A. Weizman, a teacher in Beit Metzudot, took her class of severely disabled students to Kotel a few days before Yom Kippur. 

Here were girls with severe mental disabilities, most of them unable to express themselves verbally, who displayed clear excitement as they approached the sacred wall. Despite their mental handicaps, each one of them managed to offer up a prayer in their own way. We have no doubt that their special prayers – even the wordless, soundless ones pierced the Heavens above. Mrs. Weizman and her assistants serve as role models in the level of confidence they have in their special students!
