New Book Offers Life Story of Finding Hope Amidst Challenges
by Dovid Zaklikowski – Chabad.org
Chana Sharfstein exchanges a word with the Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson, of righteous memory, during the weekly Sunday-morning audiences that collectively saw hundreds of thousands of people line up for the chance to speak with him.
Life for Chana Sharfstein, a short, energetic woman who moved from Scandinavia to Boston only to experience the pain of her father being murdered at a young age, has not been easy. Shortly after her father’s passing, her mother passed away, leaving her an orphan in a foreign country. Her more than 70 years have been a near-constant struggle to understand why the Almighty would bestow such difficult circumstances on anyone.
