Leave us a five-star review on the podcast platform and/or email us at [email protected] - we truly value your feedback!Wellesley is a town that didn't have a Shabbos observant Jew since the six days of Creation. Since Adam and Eve, there had never been an observant Jew in Wellesley. But, that being said, if 80 years ago, they said, 'Is there a minyan of Shomer Shabbos in Lakewood, that would have been new also. Someone's got to make this happen." - Rabbi Moshe Bleich“And then, almost as an afterthought, as we're walking by, the Rebbe gives, like, a half turn in my direction with my father and me. And he says, "Aun a Chossid by undzer oych." Which, literal translation, "And a Chassid by us as well."Produced by: Gary Waleik & Shneur Brook for Lubavitch International/Lubavitch.com - A Project of Machne IsraelAvailable on all major podcast platforms - and online at Lubavitch.com/podcastSupport the show
