Jewish Resurgence in Sleepy Kingston Pennsylvania

In a small quiet area of Northeastern Pennsylvania in the Wyoming Valley of the Pocono Mountains lies the once thriving Jewish community of Kingston. Dozens of Orthodox shuls, schools, and community centers are all a distant memory in the hearts and minds of the Observant Jews who have remained. Recently this all began to change with the arrival of young Lubavitch families who brought with them a new vitality and chayus. This quiet town was quickly transformed to a center of Torah and Yiras Shomayim.

Vandalism No Match for UCLA Student’s Jewish Pride

A mezuzah will again go up on the doorpost of the Undergraduate Students Association Council at the University of California-Los Angeles, after having been forcibly ripped off multiple times in the past few years. It will be rededicated next week in the presence of a group of onlookers that the student and a campus rabbi are attracting in response to the act of vandalism.

Weekly Story: Changing the Perspective

In a farbrengen with some friends, the topic of how two people can be doing the exact same action, but being that their perspective is different, everything about it is completely different.  This act of a person changing their perspective is perhaps one of the initial levels of ishapcha, turning something around and utilizing it for holiness.
