Hi Everyone!
Tonight, I watched a video that was very inspirational.
The video also made me aware of details, that I did not know,
about the amazing events that took place over the past 2 years.
Rabbi Uri Pilichowski - Modern Miracles of Chanukah:
Seeing Hashem in Today's Headlines
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=900AoAyC9-0
37 minutes and it is worth watching the whole video.
Please share. Thank You!
Please continue to pray for and support Israel.
