Lau Center Event - Rabbi David Lau

Yes, Barry. First, I want to thank you and I want to share with you a few points that I'm thinking about when I saw this movie. It remind me a few points. It remind me my first meeting with that I don't know what it means. I told him that I feel that every Jews the duty of rabbi is to take every Jew to take him one step up from the place he is there and when we went out from his office he showed me that the announcement of his company is one step up and I understood Why? He smiled. But this isn't my theory. This is my life to come to everyone with the abilities that Hashem gave me with the abilities that I have from my father, my grandfather, and my greatgrandparents all our generations. I remember when I was elected to be chief brother of Israel. I sat with Raan the Spain and he asked me how many generations of rabbis you are. I said more than 30 and he said two words in Hebrew asma. So what I liked this question because it mean not that uh okay I'm now on the mountain and now everything is okay. It means that very important who you came from but it is more important to know who are you now and what you are doing with your abilities. Yesterday we read about the stations that Jewish nation went in the desert. 42 stations in the desert. And Rashi said that when Rashi gave an example of a father who took his son during the way and showed him here you had her here you smiled here. It means that every station in life of some of everyone is teaching him something. Every station gives you something special to build your personality to build your contact who you are. And because of that I feel that I need to continue my life, continue the connection with people that secure. For example, I remember 3 weeks before 7th October I was in and I didn't know that three weeks later it will be famous places all the world knows about them. I didn't know it. I remember now the picture when I came to rehe to the dining room to meet people before young people because my duty is to go to people between young people. I came to the dining room. I saw faces of a few people but I saw deaths of a few people. They were angry. why you invited rabbi to be in our village. I remember this. I was shocked. But I began speaking. I began to speak and try to speak to to take word from my heart direct to their heart. They change their place. they change themselves. But I can tell you that all even I'm not a rabbi but I know this is not miracle. This is fact all the people in Ber and who I met in this time. I met them le later later after 7th October. I saw them. >> I saw them. They still alive. This is beautiful family. the future of to go to yeshiva me to go to help everyone one step up I found in more than 400 teenagers that they found themselves in the road for very good houses very good families but they didn't find the way their parents didn't find the way to speak with. So 300 girls and 100 boys this year between 13 to 18 learned with degree with schedule not the road. We are taking them from the deep of the road to build themsel who had a connection with the family. They went they went to sleep at home who wasn't they are coming and we have an apartment to keep them with them. So a lot of topics you can see in the papers here. A lot of topics we must do it. We must continue the connection between people and I need support because in my center this is a place as you say and I said this is like everyone will come to and today I looked for shoes and ask them that when students were soldiers when The puples came to us. I asked a pup places where to teach them where to speak with them where to be in touch to take them to be in touch in our heritage. This is secular. This is this is this is all the Jews. Every Jews in the world. This is our duty to do it and to bring cav of shine. Because of that, I want first to thank and to thank Har and I want to give you something please. I want to to give you something for your supporting. This is with your name. The symbol of aa is control to so that I want to thank you a lot and I hope that together we continue to find ways to help people every Jews in his place one set up your company and my company. >> I I am committed to helping you treat Papa David Lao to making sure that the Lao Center gets built and tens of thousands of young men and women come in there one way and go out another.
