A Treasure in Every Yid: Parshas Terumah with a Geulah Lens
In a generation where so many adults, teens, and children alike are grappling with self-worth, comparison, and the question of “Do I really matter?”, the Rebbe’s last message of Parshas Terumah lands with great relevance.
As we read Parshas Terumah and learn about the precious materials donated for the Mishkan, one material stands out: gold.
Gold is the rarest and most valuable of the materials. It is not easily found, nor easily acquired, but it is the first on the list of donations. In the sichah of Parshas Terumah 5752, the Rebbe reveals its deeper message: every Yid should recognize that he or she is gold. Each neshamah is precious, rare, and entrusted with a unique mission to bring the Shechinah into this physical world.
This powerful idea is at the heart of Good and Geulahdik, a featured segment of the Live with Geulah Now curriculum from The Moshiach Office at Merkos 302, available as a free download.
To live with Geulah means learning to see what’s “shiny” and special in ourselves and in every other Yid, recognizing our true worth and the kochos Hashem gave us to transform the world. The learning booklet presents this idea in an engaging, practical format for children, students, and campers, helping them build a Geulah perspective they can actually use.
Bonus: Along with the booklet, for a limited time only, the Moshiach Office is making available a companion game, Pots and Gold, usually included only in the paid full-package Digital Aids Portal for teachers (with games, worksheets, slideshows, workbooks, and more):
It’s recommended to play Pots and Gold before starting the booklet; it includes instructions for setup and a printable file.
This Parshas Terumah, bring the message of “gold” into your classroom, home, or camp. Download the Good and Geulahdik learning booklet, play the companion game, and empower the next generation to live with Geulah now.
