Oy and Joy I am realizing many of the videos i am watching are old. They are timeless, i hope that they will remain available for all time. You did this one on my Birthday in 2009. I can't express how much your lectures have meant to me. You have made a difference in so many lives. Thank You! Reply

lecture joy and oy / chabad video/audio programs Dear Rabbi:
Thank you for the inspirational lecture and wisdom of your story. I am discovering the origins of my own crying, laughter and pride for our people. I was in Israel with my family in June to celebrate the Bat Mitzva for my older daughter. As in your lecture with the story of the person visiting Israel and experiencing pride, I could not stop my emotions throughout my visit.....
The Chabad on-line library and resources are excellent. Thank you! Reply
