Weekly Herald

A new rabbi with Chabad of Snohomish County in Edmonds, Berel Paltiel, has settled into a new life with his wife Goldie and their two children, Risha (left), 4 months, and Chaya, 17 months, at their home in Edmonds, Washington.

Rabbi Berel Paltiel's older brothers had to pose as American tourists to transport banned religious books to Jewish congregations in Soviet Russia. All Berel had to do to transport his religious books to his new congregation was ship them from Brooklyn to Edmonds, Washington. But in every other way, he is continuing his family's legacy.

by Rabbi Joseph Telushkin – Jewish Week

Illustration photo: Eskimo town in Alaska.

At a memorial session at the Israeli Knesset honoring the Lubavitcher Rebbe shortly after his death, Chief Rabbi Yisrael Meir Lau recalled a conversation he had once had with him in which Rabbi Lau spoke of his active involvement in kiruv rechokim, bringing back to Judaism lost Jews who had strayed far away. “The Rebbe immediately corrected me: ‘We cannot label anyone as being ‘far.” Who are we to determine who is far and who is near? They are all close to Hashem.”
