Michal Leiter is from Passaic, NJ and is studying Psychology in Stern College for Women. She went to Bruriah for High school, followed by an amazing year in Michlalah. Michal went on Michlelet as a camper and is so excited to be back as a madricha! The name of Michal’s chaburah is “Life is a full Package”. Each Chaburah goes through the steps of ordering and receiving packages and connecting them to different topics in self development and Middos that are apart of our every day life. With each topic, they discuss how to work on the Middah practically, how it enhances your life, and brings in Gedolim who exemplified this Middah. Each chaburah leaves the girls with practical lessons on how to improve this Middah in their lives. The incredible girls in Michal’s chaburah are Shalva (BYOB), Chana (MHS), Chana (MHS), Meira (SKA), Atara (Naaleh), and Nava (SKA).
What is your favorite Mitzvah and why?
Shalva: My favorite mitzvah is tefillah because it gives me a chance to connect to Hashem everyday.
Atara: My favorite Mitzah is Tzedaka. I love doing this mitzvah because I love being a giver and helping those in need!
Chana: My favorite mitzvah is shabbos. I especially love counting down to it during the week. It gives me something to look forward to and gives me the opportunity to always have shabbos on my mind.
Chana: לפני עיור לא תתן מכשול
Is one of my favorite Mitzvos. It is important not to withhold any information from others that could mislead them, or cause them to stumble. This Mitzvah helps me go through every day treating people the right way.
Nava: Asking my favorite mitzvah is such a hard question because there are so many and they are all so amazing and beautiful. I think one of my favorites is tzaar baalei chaim because all living things have feelings and it is so important to treat all of Hashem’s creations with respect.
Meira: I love the versatility of Kibud Av Vaem. It’s a Mitzvah I try to prioritize and improve because family relationships are most important to me. It applies not only to one’s biological parents, but any figures or mentors in life which makes the concept more personal and applicable.
