Ahead of the anniversary of Rabbi Baruch Ber Leibowitz's passing, Mashgiach Rabbi Dan Segal visited the Bircas Shmuel Yeshiva in Israel last week. He delivered a speech of encouragement to hundreds of students, expressing his deep appreciation for the "sound of Torah" emanating from the study hall. Segal praised the yeshiva, noting its "rare divine assistance," and commended Rosh Yeshiva Rabbi Uziel Leibowitz, wishing him continued success in expanding the institution. The yeshiva is dedicated to the memory of its founder, Rabbi Baruch Ber Leibowitz, and Rabbi Chaim Shmuel Leibowitz.

Following his address, Rabbi Segal spontaneously began singing with the students, leading them in several soulful melodies, including "Golah Na Vefros" and "Tatale Kum Shuin Aheim." This singing evoked powerful emotions and reminded older attendees of the founder, Rabbi Baruch Ber Leibowitz's, own tradition of singing with his students. The event concluded with Rabbi Segal personally blessing each student for success in their Torah studies and fear of Heaven.
