Bris for Son of Schindler’s List

By COLlive reporter

A 60 year old Jew, who asked to remain anonymous, just flew to Florida to receive his Brit Mila and enter into the covenant of Avraham Avinu.

He told the Brit Yosef Yitzchak organization, which facilitated his circumcision, that his parents met at the factory of German industrialist Oskar Schindler.

Both were among the 1200 Jews employed there and thus saved during the Nazi Holocaust. Schindler has been recognized by the State of Israel as a Righteous Gentile and was buried in Jerusalem.

They later made their way to the United States where the father found employment with a prominent Chabad industrialist and philanthropist.

Now some 40 odd years later, the son has come at long last to receive his Bris for which he has waited so long.
