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.

When my boyfriend and I separated, I felt like I couldn't breathe. Everything around me lost its meaning: work, friends, even my reflection in the mirror. I was broken and didn't know how to move on. My last hope was turning to Lilia. She greeted me with such warmth that I was finally able to cry everything I'd been holding inside. Lilia helped me understand where I'd gone wrong and how to learn to listen and love again. Thanks to her support, I found the strength to reach out to the person who had always been dear to my heart. Now we're building our little world together anew, and I will never tire of thanking Lilia for restoring my love and faith in myself.

I thank Varya from the bottom of my heart. She didn't just help me—she saved the most precious thing I had.
When my life was falling apart and my heart was breaking with pain and despair, I came to Varya, the molfarka, as my last hope. The world around me seemed to have gone dark, my wife had become distant, our house was empty. It seemed as if love was gone forever. Varya greeted me calmly, with that quiet strength that can be felt even in silence. She stared for a long time into the crackling fire in her hut, as if she saw something I couldn't comprehend. With her first words, peace entered me, and with the first rituals, a feeling that everything could still be restored. Several days passed, and it was as if fate itself had turned its face. My wife suddenly began to seek communication, open up, and remember the good times. A thread of warmth reappeared between us, and soon, true intimacy. The shadows of the past dissipated, and the connection we had once lost was reborn stronger, purer, more honest. I still can't explain how it happened. But it was after meeting Varya that my family found a second life. Her wisdom, strength, and ability to listen to a person's soul made the impossible possible. I thank Varya from the bottom of my heart. She didn't just help—she saved what was most precious to me. Her number is +380632574828 (Viber / WhatsApp / Telegram)
