“To be honest with you, I love Eshel … I’m a member now. I’m in Eshel … they’re basically helping other people feel the way I do. Just be a proud Jew and be you, and people who are coming from different backgrounds that don’t accept them, and God forbid makes them think they’re not good enough or they shouldn’t be doing this stuff.  They [Eshel] help them understand, “you are not alone! You want to be an Orthodox Jew, you want to daven and pray like an Orthodox Jew.”
