A teen center, Cteen Brighton Beach - FREE, was recently opened at the synagogue at 2901 Brighton 6 Street, Brooklyn, NY, 11235, which was led for many years by Rabbay Gersh Okunev and Gabbay Isaac Lieberman. The Lubavitcher Rebbe inspired many Russian-speaking Jews by giving one dollar, which is kept by many immigrants as a talisman. His advice became a path to life for many. Cteen Center brings together teenagers through interesting programs to benefit society by harnessing their potential and energy, guiding them in the right direction. The Lubavitcher Rebbe believed in the power of youth and believed in making the teenage years a time of determination and self-discovery. The center's mission is to create a supportive environment in which adolescents can explore themselves, with a focus on positive character development. The Okunev family has done a lot of good. Rabbi Gersh Okunev many years ago officially became an envoy of the Lubavitcher Rebbe, who told him that a large aliyah was expected from Russia, and he should become a spiritual mentor for Russian-speaking Jews. People who came from the countries of the former CIS, cut off from their national traditions, had difficulty believing that Jewish life could exist in Brighton, and it would not be dangerous. Rabbi Gersh Okunev lived in another area of New York, in the summer he spent the night on the roof of the synagogue, and in the morning he went to the ocean, took people by the hand and brought them to the synagogue. And whenever you come to the synagogue, if you meet Rebbe Gersh Okunev and Gabbay Isaac Lieberman, you will feel welcome. Respected man Isaac Lieberman has been working with Rabbai Gersh Okunev for many years. He is an elder in the synagogue. Many years ago, Rabbi Gersh Okunev introduced Isaac Lieberman to the Lubavitcher Rebbe, from whom, fortunately, he also received one dollar. And from then on, the synagogue in Brighton became a house of learning and meeting. Gabbay Isaac Lieberman is an administrator at the synagogue. He has a lot of work to do. It is worth noting that although Brighton has changed a lot these days, the synagogue on 6 Brighton has a worthy change. In Rebbe Okunev's family, children continue family traditions, and the recently organized center for teenagers is now very much needed. It is headed by his son Menachem Okunev. On the fourth Brighton, Rabbi David Okunev heads the Jewish Center, where many Brighton residents, regardless of religion, receive food. There is Mazel Day School in Brighton - a private school for young children, headed by Rabbai Avrum Okunev and Rebbetz Hani Okunev. So Jewish life in Brighton continues for the People of the Book.

I don't know the words to describe what's happened in my life. Just recently, I felt like I was living in darkness. Every day began with pain and ended in tears. It seemed as if fate had turned its back on me forever. The person dearest to me had left my life, and with him, joy, hope, and the desire to move on. When I turned to Varya, the molfarka, it was my last ray of hope. I came to her with a broken heart and a complete emptiness inside. She listened carefully, supported me, and helped me believe that even after the most difficult trials, life can change. Time passed, and I began to notice amazing changes. What seemed impossible gradually became reality. The man I loved returned to my life. Our conversations, our feelings, our dreams returned. But most importantly... I myself returned. The one who knew how to smile, enjoy every day, and believe in the future. Today I wake up with gratitude in my heart. Gratitude for a second chance, for the opportunity to be happy and loved again. Varya helped me find hope when I was almost losing it. It was a true salvation for me. Thank you, Varya, for your kindness, support, and the light you brought to my soul. I will never forget that moment when my life began to change for the better. With all my heart, I wish you health, happiness, and endless gratitude from the people you help, just as you once helped me. Tel. +380632574828 Viber/WhatsApp
The Conversation That Changed Coney Island On July 19th, America celebrated a national holiday—Juneteenth, Emancipation Day. Many of us grew up abroad and didn't celebrate this day, but living in the United States, we learn to understand and respect the history of the country that became our home. Marina Lagunova

Ladies, I'm writing for those of you whose home life has become a living hell. My husband, children, and I moved into a new apartment, and it was like a different person—constant arguments for no apparent reason, the kids became cranky and slept poorly, my husband started working late, and our relationship became completely frosty. I realized the apartment had heavy energy, or someone was deeply jealous. I consulted the light healer Tatyana on a colleague's recommendation. Tatyana read our Tarot cards and confirmed that the previous tenants had left a lot of negativity, plus a strong evil eye had been cast on us as a couple. Tatyana performed a powerful house cleansing with prayers and rolled an egg across our entire family to remove pent-up anger and envy. And to cement the results, she made a special Slavic amulet doll for our home to protect the family and attract prosperity. Ladies, the atmosphere in our family changed instantly! The house has become cozy, the children sleep peacefully all night, and my husband and I have regained our former tenderness and understanding. Tatyana is very strong and helps with many problems.
