Monday afternoon @ Chabad

Bh
How great it is to go out to the park with the kids in the afternoon and to meet our great neighbours. So many kids getting together and playing. How great it is to live near Chabad.

Shabbat lunch this Saturday.

Bh
You are invited to a special lunch this Shabbat. It will be great to enjoy Shabbat lunch together with you. We have many reasons to celebrate, in honor our wonderful community, the date of the founding of the Chabad Lubavitch movement by the Alter Rebbe, and Dave Birks wedding.
This is the first of a monthly community lunch. Next month a guest speaker from Melbourne will be coming.
Please advise if you can't make it.
Even if you can not make it to the services for whatever reason come after for lunch.

Shabbat parshat Vayetze

Bh
Its a strange thing now Friday evenings to come to shule and it still is light.
Mincha was said at 630pm followed by Kabbalat Shabbat. For some strange reason Rabbi White led all the services.
On Friday night the Rabbi spoke about chasing love and happiness and not realizing that it is what we have already. The idea was expressed from Jacob. He married two wives, one he loved and adored, the other he disliked. Strangely, the majority of his children came from the one disliked. He lived mainly with the one that he disliked and was even buried with her. Yet the one which he loved only brought him joy on distant occassions. The cherished child from his loved wife was taken from him.
When we think that we are married to two people the one we love and the one we dislike we are bound to end up with the one we dislike. When we realize that the one we love also has faults and therefore is the same one that we love we are bound to find joy and happiness. Try it and tell me what you find.
It was great to see Allan and Chymie at shule this week. We have missed them dearly.
We farewelled those going to Dave Birks wedding in the USA.
Thank you to the Luries for hosting all the children in the afternoon.
See you all next week for another Shabbat at Chabad!

A very moving moment

bh
Today I had the privilege of writing a letter in Gabi and Rivki's Sefer Torah. All the shluchim had the opportunity to write a letter.
Tonight we will be together all of us to remember.

First minyan in 770

Bh
From the earliest moment till the last 770 will have a minyan.
These first minyanim are made of people that work in Manhattan etc. Most chabadniks actually have normal jobs, would you believe.

Just arrived to the Beis Midrash. Full of life. I met Rabbi Groner from Melbourne sitting and learning. I can sit and still feel what I was doing when I was a Bachur here.
