Recently the bochurim of the yeshiva YNS of Tzefat were treated to a beautiful Shabbaton at the Hotel Kibbutz Lavi. Even without realizing, the bochurim made a huge Kiddush Lubavitch at the Friday night Seudas Shabbos. One of the guests of the hotel thanked Rabbi Orimland and the bochurim for making the meal so lebedik and beautiful. He told Rabbi ‘O’ that only in Lubavitch can you find such Simcha and feel such warmth. This guest was so inspired that he joined the bochurim Shabbos morning for davening in their minyan.
On Motzei Shabbos the bochurim were treated to swimming, pizza and a kumsitz where Rabbi ‘O’ told a number of inspiring stories which the bochurim were very touched by.
Parshas Zachor will be remembered for a long time, by the friday night seudas shabbos at Rabbi ‘O’s which led into a farbrengen which lasted until 6:00 a.m. Rabbi ‘O’ spoke about who, what and where is Amalek of today and how we are able to defeat him.
‘Purim fever’ was running high in the Yeshiva, when following the Megillah the bochurim were surprised with the live music that Rabbi ‘O’ had arranged for them. Many outsiders joined YNS upon hearing the lebedikeit of the bochurim.
Following Megillah the next morning the bochurim were invited to the Rebbeim’s houses for simchas purim. Seudas Purim at the yeshiva was very inspiring. Rabbi ‘O’ emphasized that just like Mordechai didn’t bow down to Haman so too we can’t bend in our beliefs and we must remember what we stand for, no matter the outside influences. Rabbi ‘O’ also spoke about how we can find the Hand of Hashem even though we are in this dark and bitter golus and even when at times it is hard to see it.
ur the man!!! looking good!!! can’t wait to see you!!!
