Chabad @ Flamingo in Thornhill, Ontario, has big plans to keep on growing. About seven years ago, organizers drew up blueprints to expand the sanctuary and social area.

Despite the number of cooks in the kitchen, preparations to create a Shabbat dinner were moving smoothly. That’s no small feat, and this was no small event – not just because the Mangels are a family with eight children, ages 3 to 19.

In the 1950s, when I was a young man, I befriended Rabbi Moses Rosen, who was the chief rabbi of Romania. Whenever he came to New York, he prayed in my shul, which was the Fifth Avenue Synagogue, and when we discovered that we both spoke French, it brought us together. We became good friends, our wives became friends, and it was a great friendship for friendship’s sake, as the saying goes.
