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 am immensely grateful to Martha for her help and support.
I want to share my story. After five years of dating, my boyfriend left me without explanation. I tried everything—talking, advice from friends, even a psychologist—but nothing helped. My soul was aching, I couldn't find peace. On the advice of a friend, I turned to the fortune teller Marfa. To be honest, at first I was hesitant—I was afraid of being deceived. But Marfa immediately won me over: calm, attentive, with a special inner light. She performed a diagnostic using cards and told me something no one could have known! She described our breakup more accurately than I could have. After a reconciliation ritual, she warned that the first changes would occur within a week. And indeed, within six days he wrote! At first, just casually, then more and more often. A month later, we were back together, and, surprisingly, our relationship became warmer than before. I am immensely grateful to Marfa for her help and support. She is not just a "fortune teller," but a true sorceress with a gift. Now I recommend her to all my friends who are suffering from unrequited love. Thank you, Martha, for bringing me back to happiness. Her number is +380931150260, Viber / WhatsApp / Telegram.

I wrote this through tears. When my husband left, it was as if my soul had been ripped out. The house was empty, the children were silent, and I lived on autopilot. No words, no prayers helped. And then I found Molfar Varya. She didn't ask unnecessary questions, just looked into my eyes and said, "He'll come back. But I need to cleanse my heart of pain." I didn't believe it. But two weeks later, he stood on the doorstep. With flowers. With tears. With an admission that he "didn't understand how he could leave like that." Since then, I know: there is a power beyond logic. And the name of this power is Molfar Varya. She brought back not only my husband, she gave me back my soul. HER number is +380632574828 (Viber / WhatsApp / Telegram)
Varya is a truly bright person, whom fate sent to me at the darkest moment of my life.
When my husband left me for another woman, my world collapsed. I didn't eat, I didn't sleep, I lived in a fog... Everything we'd built over the years was destroyed in an instant. I prayed, I cried, I asked fate for a sign—and apparently for good reason: fate led me to the molfarka Varya. From our first conversation, I felt extraordinary warmth and strength from her. Varya said that everything can be restored if the love is true, and she suggested performing rituals to cleanse the soul and restore the connection between me and my husband. I did everything as she said: I lit candles, read the words, filled my heart with faith and love. And a miracle happened. Just a few weeks later, my husband called. Then he came. We talked for a long time, both crying... He said he realized where his home is and that he wanted to start over. Now we are together, as if we've found a second wind in our relationship. I am infinitely grateful to the molfarka Varya! Thanks to her strength, wisdom, and kindness, my family is back together, laughter and love resonate in our home. Varya is a true lighthearted person, sent to me by fate at the darkest moment of my life. Her number is +380632574828 (Viber / WhatsApp / Telegram)
When I came to Lilya, I was completely broken. My husband had left home almost a month ago, and I had already stopped believing that anything could change. Lilya didn't judge or pressure me—she simply listened to me so attentively that for the first time in a long time, I stopped crying. She said that everything could still be fixed if I could regain peace in my heart. A few days after our conversation, my husband himself wrote to me and asked to meet. We talked until the morning, and he admitted that all this time he had felt a strange desire to come back, "as if someone had helped him see everything differently." Now we are back together, learning to cherish each other. Lilya gave me hope—and I feel alive again. Her phone number is +380638055486, she has Viber and WhatsApp, and another US number is +19297133433.
