Beautiful Letter from famed Sara Schneirer, Founder of the ‘Beis Yaakov’ Movement
"Mazal Tov! Mazal Tov! Mazal Tov!"
Warm congratulations on a wedding, from the pure heart of the righteous educator Mrs. Sara Schneirer of Kraków, Founder of the Bais Yaakov school system for girls.
Rebbitzin Sara Schneirer – through her educational efforts and her noble influence on her students and their students – sparked such a tremendous and wide-ranging revolution that it is hard to imagine what Torah Judaism would look like without her…
Mrs. Sara Schneirer (1883-1935) was the pioneer who, with her own two hands and self-sacrifice, established the ‘Beis Yaakov’ educational network in the traditional path of Israel. She succeeded in nurturing generations upon generations of righteous women, and her impact is felt to this day.
Sara Schneirer’s unique and rare letters evoked great excitement in the hearts of her beloved students, wherever they were sent.
