Over 150 men and women gathered in Monsey to mark
Gimmel Tammuz with guest speaker Rabbi Isser Zalmen Weisberg at Khal Tzemach Tzedek Lubavitch.
The
Farbrengen started with Master of Ceremonies Rabbi Yossi Krasnianski welcoming
all of Anash to the event and Rabbi Boruch D. Lesches Mara D'asra of Tzemach
Tzedek giving over warm divrei bracha.
He was then followed by the guest speaker, Rabbi Isser Zalman Weisberg of
Lakewood, NJ, who kept the crowd at the edge of their seats as he recounted his
fascinating journey to Chabad from the Litvishe Torah world. Rabbi Weisberg
spoke about his tremendous hakoras hatov to the Rebbe who personally guided and
encouraged him on a regular basis for many years until he fully developed his
learning and writing skills to present the Rebbe's Torah in prestigious Torah
publications. He concluded by sharing his perspective on the Rebbe's famous
directive to bring Moshiach by using oros detohu bekeilim detikkun.
One yungerman commented, it's so refreshing to come to such a
down-to-earth, genuine and "real" farbrengen which combined relevant
guidance with so much inspiration.
The Farbrengen would not have been made possible
without the organization of Rabbi Zalmen L. Markowitz and R' Yona Abenson, as well as the assistance of Hirshel Rosenbluh, Mendy Glick, Mendel Sandhouse and
other anonymous people that greatly assisted in putting the event together. A special
thanks goes to Shmuli Niasoff for putting together the audio
and visual.
And last but not least, thanks to all the donors who
made this event happen, starting from all of the local Chabad Shuls
participating in the Farbrengen - Tzemach Tzedek, Beis Menachem, Beis MM
Lubavitch of Pomona and Anash of Airmont.
