In a joint event of JCC of Rockland and Chabad of New City, Mrs. Sarah Karmely spoke about her new book Words to Hear With Your Heart: A Journal of Jewish Inspiration for Your Marriage, Your Soul, and Your Life, and her upcoming gift version, Thoughts to Hear with Your Heart: On Jewish Life and Inspiration.

CROWN HEIGHTS, Brooklyn [CHI] – With reports that temperatures will brush with the freezing point, Crown Heights streets are alive and buzzing. Shluchim from around the world began gathering yesterday for the annual International Conference of Shluchim.
Police have stepped up their patrols in order to secure the special guests, commanding office of the 71st Precinct Deputy Inspector Frank Vega told CrownHeights.info. But it wasn’t his word that we had to rely on.
