This past Wednesday, women from four local Florida Chabad Centers joined for an inspirational evening with Joanne Caras, author of Holocaust Survivor Cookbook.
HaGaon HaRav Menachem Mendel Mendelson ZT”L, the Rav of Komomiyut, Israel for the past 33 years, was niftar today, 27 Cheshvan, 5772. The Rav was a dear and close friend of Lubavitch, particularly close with Rabbi Moshe Havlin of Kiryat Gat, and participated in many Lubavitcher events.
In the above video clip, Rabbi Mendelson tells the Rebbe that the Chabad Yeshiva in Kiryat Gat is in need of financial help. The Rebbe tells him to find 2 more Rabbis (anyone with smicha) and pasken that they should get money. Rabbi Mendelson did what the Rebbe suggested, and since then the Kiryat Gat Yeshiva has been doing well financially!

Not too long ago, it might have been one of the least likely locations from where a religious scribe would start writing a Torah scroll, but on Sunday, families and friends affiliated with a Jewish center in the New York City neighborhood of Harlem gathered to celebrate just such an occasion.

A few weeks ago, when I submitted my column to Malibu Patch editor Jonathan Friedman, I was asked if the B”H at the top of the page was part of the column. After I explained what it means, we decided to leave it to another time, when I could address its meaning and importance.
