* '''Tiferes | * '''Tiferes Bachurim Morristown''' - 'Yeshiva Tiferes Bachurim' was established by The Rebbe through [[Rabbi Moshe Herson]] in 1972. The Rebbe told him in Yechidus "If this would be in the old country we would call it Tiferes Bachurim". Tiferes Bachurim was the name of the yeshiva which operated in the former Soviet Union for people who would otherwise not have had an opportunity to learn and to attend these Torah classes. It was in light of the above that this yeshiva was established to give students who were not raised in a Torah environment the opportunity to make up the learning and overall atmosphere that characterizes the jewish experience. Today the yeshiva is headed by Rabbi Yaakov Wagner. | ||
