The Jewish learning center in St. does a lot of good deeds for people and society. Island. On November 24, a meeting of concerned people took place to express their solidarity with the 220 hostages captured by Hamas terrorists on October 7.

You can fight darkness only by adding light! All the guests saw the empty seats of the hostages who were not yet with us. Among those present was 49th Ward City Council member St. Island Camille Hanks, who visited Israel last year. She was outraged by the barbarity and massacre committed by Hamas, emphasizing that all people, regardless of race or religion, must unite and condemn crimes against humanity!

An interesting fact is that at the previous event the women made the candlesticks themselves, and the candles were sponsored by generous people. Those who were unable to come to the event, but wanted to show their support, donated money, which was sent to a fund to help those affected in Israel. The ceremony was concluded with a powerful speech by Rabbi Eli Kogan, director of the educational center. He talked about a special unique property of light: when you light another candle, the light of the first one does not become less. By lighting candles, bringing more light, doing good deeds, promising donations and performing mitzvahs, especially now, we will bring divine salvation and all captives will be released and returned.

I don’t know how to explain it, but thank you Matrona for helping me not to lose what is most precious to me.
To be honest... I was in complete and utter shit back then. My wife left, slamming the door so hard that everything inside me collapsed. The apartment was empty, the silence was oppressive, I was pacing the room like a cornered wolf. I couldn't work, I sent my friends away, I hated myself. My life was going to hell. At some point, I realized: that's it, I can't handle it anymore. And I went to Matrona. Without hope, without any pretty words... just like a man who has no one else to turn to. I begged her like a man, please help... If there's even a chance to get her back, help. I was already at rock bottom. And, damn it, the last thing I expected happened. A couple of days later, my wife contacted me herself. Not with any show-offs, not with reproaches... she just said... Let's talk. I almost dropped the phone. She came home... And we talked so much that it seemed the walls were shaking: we broke down, screamed, were silent, cried. But damn, it was real. And most importantly... she stayed. The house came to life. I came to life. It was as if someone had shaken us both. I don't know how to explain it, but thank you Matrona for helping me not to lose what was most precious to me. I couldn't have done it without her. Here's her number: +38(063) 022 89 99 Viber/WhatsApp
I still can't believe it happened... Lilya is simply magical! After months of silence and despair, my husband wrote to me himself, admitted he missed me and wanted to come back.

We need some options for people from the former Soviet Union to immigrate to the US. Maybe some courses, training, business opportunities, work? Any options for people to obtain a US visa? Thank you.

I was at my wits' end when my husband left. Lilia performed several rituals for me and explained the importance of changing my energy and attitude toward the situation. I don't know what exactly worked, but after these practices, my husband and I entered a new phase—he started communicating more often, and then he came home. I'm sure the rituals played a role.
