The rebbe's shluchim reaching across the globe

I would like to take the time to share a story with everyone
this Friday on mivtzoim I met an Israeli man who asked me were he could buy kosher food for shabbos. After I told him what he wanted to know I invited him to the shabbos mvarchim farbrengehn that mendy and I were making in the chabad house. I also told him the times of davening and the shiur before mincha on a sicho given by habochur hashliach chaim litvin. Anyway he came to mincha shabbos and we farbrenged it turns out that this guy is a doctor who lived in Singapore for the past five years and he said that habochur hashliach cholom loube is the happiest man in Singapore always with a joke or a kind word and a vort on the parsha.
with this said I would like to congratulate all the shluchim of the world at large for all their hard work and chasidishkiet like we see from this weeks parsha toldos that starts aileh toldos yitzchok which is similar to a month ago parshas noach aileh toldos noach why there is it noach and here toldos the answer my friends is shlichus nairos lehair the ikur toldos are those of yitzchok following in his ways lighting the path for world jewry with happiness {yitzchok lashon tzachok laugh} and joy unlike noach wich is a loshon of resting. May we merit to bring moshiach speedily in our days!!Amen.

just a reminder

last year as we all know there was alot of sleeping in zal if you disagree look at the pics they speak for me anyway this issue was farbrenged over and it was decided that bochurim sleep and waste time in yehivah because there is nothing else to do but now that we are all shluchim we should do more learning teaching and mivtzoim


here is someone wasting time there are many more like this

let us please spread yidishket and the rebbes inyonim and bring moshiach now

{please excuse any informalatis as it s right after the farbrengehn}

Me . . . Polish style Posted by Picasa
Proze (Prozhe as in the Zh of gezhe)

It was my Birthday yesterday -as I'm sure you all know and have already sent out you gifts- and we made a Farbrengen last night with R' Zalmen Stambler.
Among other things that were said I'll mention one:
We arrived Parshas Noach -where Hashem tells Noach "Tzei min hateiva" ("Go out of the ark"). That we did, we left yeshiva, as it were, to go on shlichus and become "involved" in the world -tzu tun mit nach a Yidden. If so, fregt zich the sha'alo, what more do I need tgo do? I went out, I went on a shlichus -Ich bin shoin gantz. That's why it's parshas Lech Lecha, we need to go deeper, to leave our habbits, to be ibergegeben tzum Rebben -an eved's whole goal is to give nachas to his master.

The Farbrengen is underway

We went to (Jewish) Cemetery yesterday, it's only a few minutes away from us, but it feels like it's years back in time.
The Germans left it (almost) untouched, Izhe explained, the two of the most probable reasons being that either they wanted to save it for their (in)famous "Museum . . ." or that they wanted to show the world that they weren't so bad -why hey, they left the world famous Warsaw Cemetery in tact.
The place is huge, there are around 250,000 people buried their -that's a quarter of a million! It's relatively new as cemeteries go, only about 200 years old, but in it rest many famous people.

mass grave memorial Posted by Picasa

The site of the mass graves from Ghetto sent chills down my spine. There were so many people dieing that there was no time for them to be buried properly, therefore they were put in a large mass grave, there are approx. 10,000 people there! Hashem yekum Damum

17 bones of people who died in the Ghetto found at some later date and brought to "kever Yisroel" Posted by Picasa

Farewell

It's 3:41am and i still have to Finnish packing but being that i don't know when i will have my next opportunity to use the net i have to get this post out...

Tomorrow I'll be leaving from Montreal and heading to South Africa via New York/the Ohel to fulfill my shlichus (and part of the reason i came to this world).

I thank you all for keeping in touch (albeit a one way touch sometimes) and i say Good Bye and Good Luck to all.

I of-course plan on keeping the world updated throughout my travels and hopefully we will have sufficient bandwidth to do so.

to those of you i didn't have a chance tell you good bye personally, feel bad -it was on purpose! (lol).

Yossi!
Still in Montreal...
But the way out.

Baruch Hashem, after tireless effort from my dear and beloved friend, Hatomim Hashliach Shneor Zalmen Hacohen Zarchi, we now have a VoIP phone. That's right, a call to Warsaw is now as easy as calling Tante Shprintza in Con Tziva.
