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.

I thank Lilia for her help and support. It was a huge step toward bringing love and understanding back into our home.
When I turned to clairvoyant Lilia, my life was in turmoil. My husband and I had drifted apart so far that even normal conversations were difficult. I felt like I was losing what was most precious to me, but I didn't know where to start to fix it. Lilia immediately put me at ease—calm and attentive, she seemed to see what I couldn't understand. Her advice and explanations helped me understand my emotions and what was happening between us. Following her recommendations, a warm energy began to fill our home: it was as if we remembered why we chose each other. Our relationship became softer and calmer. We began discussing important things again, making time for each other, and caring about each other's feelings. The tension that had plagued us for months gradually disappeared. Now I feel much more confident and calm, and harmony reigns in our family once again. I thank Lilia for her help and support. This was a huge step toward bringing love and understanding back into our home. Honestly, I don't even know where to begin... I didn't believe in fortune tellers or clairvoyants for a long time, but I came to Lilia in complete despair. My relationship was completely ruined—my man left me for another woman, and I found out he really had been bewitched by a rival. I was broken, I thought it was the end. Lilia didn't promise "overnight miracles," but she said everything could be fixed. She removed the negativity from him, cleansed us both, set up powerful protection, and most importantly, brought back our feelings. Our relationship was restored right before our eyes, and now we're preparing for the wedding. It's strange to even say, but I'm actually getting married—something I've dreamed of for so many years. This isn't an advertisement, not a request—I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for real help, not just pretty words. She's one of the few who truly sees, knows, and does. Her contact phone number is +380638055486, there is Viber and WhatsApp, and another US number is +19297133433
My husband and I were together for 10 years, but things went downhill. I tried everything—talking, pausing, silence, tears. Lilia helped me look at the situation differently, work on myself, and not just wait. My husband came back because he saw that I had changed. I feel loved again. Overall, I highly recommend Lilia... +380638055486 +19297133433
I thank Lilia for her strength, patience, and kindness. She brings back not just people, but entire lives.
I was in complete despair. After my husband's betrayal, I felt like I was losing myself. Everything was falling apart, and my life seemed empty. Lilia became my salvation. She saw the reasons that led to the breakup, removed the negativity, and worked with me on an energetic and spiritual level. And then something happened that I no longer believed would happen: my husband returned. But not just physically—he became a different person. More conscious, more attentive. I thank Lilia for her strength, patience, and kindness. She brings back not just people, but entire lives. I'll leave you her contact information: +380638055486 (WhatsApp, Viber) +19297133433
I initially consulted her about finances—I was constantly losing money, in debt, and facing setbacks. She said my money channel was blocked and helped me "open" it. A week later, I received the first good news. Then more. Now I feel as if a bad streak has given way to a good one. I consult with her regularly now—not just about money, but about my life in general. She's a very strong person. Contact number: +1 (646) 377-9379.
