THE BRAINCHILD OF YAKOV FRIEDMAN AND THE RABBAYEV OKUNEVS
THE BRAINCHILD OF YAKOV FRIEDMAN AND THE RABBAYEV OKUNEVS It has been over 50 years since the Lubavitcher Rebbe proposed, and with God's help, oh miracle, the Minors are lit in the streets and squares. The Russian-speaking Jewish community living on West 5 and Brighton is pleased to welcome the organizers of the ceremonial lighting of the Chanukiah, Rabbai 1'ersh Okunev and his nephew Rabbai David Okunev. The Okunev family of religious leaders does a lot of good to ensure that Jewish life continues on West 5. Ari Kagan, a worthy politician, spoke and congratulated everyone present on the holiday. More than 40 years ago we started lighting the Minorah on Brighton, and our nine-meter beauty Minorah - a symbol of the Victory of Light over darkness - is already more than 25 years old. This is the only non-detachable, permanently installed Minorah in the USA, near the Chase Bank it was made by the talented architect Jacob Friedman. And yesterday another creation of Jacob Friedman appeared - the second Chanukiah on 4 Brighton, near the Western Wall. He is an immigrant from Odessa, a Holocaust survivor. For over 25 years, he has been volunteering to equip synagogues with technical equipment. For example, he made the largest Sukkah for the Sukkot holiday in the synagogue, without a single nail. He also writes beautiful poetry. Yes, the Jewish people give birth to such talented people!
During the lighting of Minora, dozens of Jews and non-Jews with their children and grandchildren have been coming to Minora for many years to hear music and try doughnuts. It is worth noting that the Rabbai are treated with great respect in the area. They can support in difficult times, rejoice in successes, are happy when they get married, get married, and have children. The holiday of light and fires has arrived, designed to give a miracle and warm the hearts of believers. The day when hundreds of candles are lit and the Jewish people pay tribute to the events that happened many centuries ago. In the evenings, the lights lit on many windowsills in New York remind us: no matter how dark and scary it is around, there will always be that one treasured jug, a clean vessel with oil. And a miracle will happen and bring warmth and kindness to the world.
Let the holiday of light and goodness bring light, love and warmth into your hearts.

Only Lilia, from the first word, felt what I was going through.
When I was cheated on, I thought it was over, period. My heart was broken, my soul empty. I couldn't talk to anyone, no one understood. Only Lilia understood what I was going through from the first word. She said things only he and I knew. It was amazing... and scary. But most importantly, she helped me understand why it happened and how to survive it. Thanks to her wise advice and energy work, our marriage not only survived, but became stronger. My husband changed. I changed. We started living anew. And all this is thanks to you, Lilia. You truly have a gift! I write to her on Viber and WhatsApp (+380638055486) and her regular number (+19297133433)
I thank Matrona for those who turned me into happiness, for her wisdom and light.
I haven’t had the courage to write this for a long time, because everything I’ve been through so far makes my heart hurt. Soon after I separated from my partner, I left my family, and a darker period of life began for me. Sleepless nights, tears, being empty at home, despair and hopelessness... I didn’t believe that I could turn him around and renew our family. When I returned to Matrona, this was my remaining peace, my remaining hope. She listened to me with such warmth and understanding, and she shared my love. From the first words, it became clear that I was not alone, that there was light at the end of this darkness. Matrona helped me walk this important path: she turned faith in myself, changed my soul and heart. I began to mark the signs that she indicated, and the man himself, having earned the first crumb before reconciliation. Those who seemed impossible, became - we turned home. Today we meet again. Our home is filled with joy, laughter and warmth. I thank Matrona for those who turned me into happiness, for her wisdom and light. Without her help, my family couldn’t get back together no. +380630228999 viber/whatsapp

When everything was heading toward divorce, I didn't even believe it was possible to turn things around. But I met Lilia in New York, and she gave us a chance at a new life. She didn't just bring my husband back; she taught us to love and understand each other again. All those crises that seemed insurmountable, thanks to her advice, became simply stages that we went through together. I'm so happy I found Lilia!
