rabbi and baila goodman are amazing people and are transforming the long beach community.

It’s nice to see a Chabd Rabbi/Shliach being able to relate to, and reach out to his community members!

great work

TO ALL THE CLOSE MINDED CROWN HEIGHTSERS – HOW DO YOU THINK SHLUCHIM GET PEOPLE TO COME? THIS VIDEO WAS MADE TO ATTRACT PEOPLE WHO DON’T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT BIRKAS HACHAMA!! AND IT DEFINITELY WILL BRING A CROWD.. ITS ADORABLE!! THIS COMMUNITY FORSURE LOVES THEIR RABBI….VERY CREATIVE…THIS SHLIACH IS USING HIS SURROUNDINGS AND USING TECHNOLOGY TO DO WHAT THE REBBE WANTS!!

yashkoach keep it up..

is there a reason that any article/picture/or video that goes up on this site has to be bashed and picked and scrutinized? lets be positive ppl….seems like this audience is always in a bad mood…

please don’t criticize – this is the Bach Center – an affiliate of the Awareness center so its a modern orthodox thing, that’s all.

ignorance is bliss?

Keep in mind this is a video made to attract this particular Shliach’s community, not Crown Heights or typical Lubavitchers.

Obviously he doesn’t go around looking like this everyday! Without knowing the Shliach or his community, it is foolish to make a negative post about his levush or his method of advertisment, unless it is contrary to derech hatorah. What have you accomplished?

It would help if you knew something about a story and its background before you post.

Thinking and being “dan l’kaf zechus” also works.

Ah Freilichen un Koshere Pesach to all!

What happened to the “Levush” of Chassidim by Shluchim. Is this what is going to bring Yidden closer to Yiddishkiet?
