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.

Now our family is stronger than ever. Thank you, Lilia!
My husband and I were on the brink of divorce and no longer believed anything could be fixed. But fate brought Lilia and I together, and it was a true miracle! I found her in New York, and she helped us find our way back to each other. She showed us the importance of understanding our partners, working on ourselves, and not being afraid to seek a solution, even when it seems all is lost. Now our family is stronger than ever. Thank you, Lilia! (+380638055486 for WhatsApp and Viber, +19297133433 for regular calls)
Everything worked out thanks to Marfa. I'll leave her number: +38093-115-02-60 Viber / WhatsApp / Telegram
I came to Marfa when I was almost at the point of giving up... my husband had filed for divorce, our conversations were limited to arguments, and a cold silence reigned in the house. As soon as I walked in, Marfa immediately started talking. She sees everything and tells it as if she's been observing our life from the outside: the grievances, the unspoken things, and my pain that kept me awake at night. Marfa said the connection between us could still be restored and performed several rituals for reconciliation and mutual understanding. I don't know what exactly worked... the wise words, the support, or the atmosphere itself, but something seemed to shift inside. After these meetings, the house became calmer, and my husband unexpectedly opened up to dialogue. We were able to talk for real, without yelling and accusations. He stopped the divorce, and gradually everything began to return to normal. Now it's like we're on a second honeymoon... we're laughing again, making plans, and feeling as close as we did at the beginning. Everything has gotten better thanks to Marfa.

I can't forget that evening. He came with a cold face, didn't even look up: "Dasha, I don't want to be with you anymore. I've decided everything." 3 years together. We talked about children, about a house outside the city, about the future. I thought we were "the ones". But he packed his things and left. And didn't look back. I lay on the floor and howled. It seemed to me that I had died, only my body remained. Everything inside burned. A week later, I found out that he was with another. And then I simply stopped being myself. Nothing helped. Neither conversations nor advice. Everyone said: "Forget, let go." But how can you forget someone you feel with every cell? I came across Lilia by chance. Or was it fate... She looked at my photo and said: "He didn't just leave. He's lost his way. But if you want, I'll help you bring him back." It was scary. But I agreed. Because there was nothing left to lose. We performed 3 rituals. We prayed. I followed every detail. I was afraid of making a mistake. And then one day he wrote. At first simply: "How are you?" Then: "I dream of you every night." And then he came. He stood on the threshold, as if lost: "I don't understand what happened. As if I woke up. Bring me back." And I did. With Lilia's help. We are together again. He doesn't let go of my hand for a second. He says that he won't make such a mistake a second time. Lilia, you are not just a clairvoyant. You saved my soul. Thank you for everything.

When the soul finds no peace, when the heart is gripped by anxiety and pain, it's a sign that you need to seek answers. Clairvoyant Lilia helps where reason is powerless and where hope fades with each passing day. Through Tarot cards and the energy of photography, I see the truth that cannot be hidden. Even an old photograph bears the imprint of fate—from it, I can tell what's happening to a person, whether they're alive, whether they love you, whether they remember you, what they're feeling, and what intentions they're hiding. I sense lies, betrayal, estrangement, rivalry, deception—and I can reveal the truth to you, no matter how difficult it may be. If there's a wall of silence between you, if you feel your strength ebbing and your life losing meaning, I will help restore harmony. I will determine whether there is a curse, hex, love spell, or hex, who cast it, and when, and I will cleanse you—removing negativity, restoring energy, aligning your chakras, and providing powerful protection. After the ritual, you'll feel lightness, calm, and a desire to live and believe again. Tarot cards don't lie—they'll show you what lies ahead: whether love is worth fighting for, whether to trust someone, what your path will be, and where the twist of fate is that could change everything. I don't promise miracles—I help create them, because I'm born with power, and through it, I bring light, hope, and love back to people. Clairvoyant Lily. Tarot reading. Photo diagnostics. Negativity removal. I'll help you regain what seemed lost forever. Contacts: +380638055486 (WhatsApp, Viber) +19297133433
