There's a nine-year-old boy sitting all by himself after a long Friday night suda and he's sitting with a transliterated bencher trying to bench properly. He doesn't know how to read Hebrew and he's uh slowly going over the words trying to pronounce each word the way it should be. And it takes him about 10 minutes till he finishes benching. At that point, there's a few of us who are gathered around him. And uh after he finishes, we tell him, "Wow, that that's so amazing, you know, that you uh you took the time, you took the effort after everyone else left to to to sit and tried to to bench properly to thank Hashem." And he brushes it off. He says, "It's my privilege. I'm able to thank Hashem for the food that he gave us." That's an UR moment. Last summer, Ura brought 2,000 of our family members to the Sea of Ashas. Many of them were Tormates. One of the Torah maids who attended had just started reading less than a year earlier at the Seam Mashas. He was so inspired that he took upon himself to start Dafy. Now many months later, he is still keeping up with the DAFF. That is an aura moment. After joining Chillzone for many, many sessions and really hooking up with his Torah mate, Jacob decided he wants to join camp. Jacob shows up in camp and at Teens Got Talent night after his talent show, he says, "I want to tell everybody a story." All the teens are sitting around and he says, "You know, I used to have 100 friends, but when I started learning with my Torah mate, I switched my 100 friends from my one friend, my Torah mate. It was the greatest decision of my life. Today, Jacob is learning in one of the most amazing yeshivas out there. That is a real real moment. Joey never kept a shabas before in his life. Every month of Shabas, Joey's only connection to Yiddish is going to chill zone. A few weeks ago on the national chill zone shabaton, Joey decided that he wants to keep his first Shabas. His greatest struggle to keep Shabas was a cell phone. So he decided that he'll let his cell phone run on Thursday, Friday. By the time Shabas came, his cell phone was dead. Amat Shabas at the national chill zone. The grand prize raffle winner was none other than this boy Joey that kept his first Shabas. The next week, Friday, we got a text from Joey and he wrote to us that he wants to keep another Shabas that much of Shabas right after this man. We all ran to our phones and we opened it up and when we saw those words, I did it. I kept my second shabas. That's an Ura moment. There was a boy in camp. He was so inspired of living a Torah Shabas every single week. And he wanted to go home with something. He wanted a memory of Shabas that shall last him throughout the year. He came over to me and he asked me the following question. His family is not religious. His siblings, his parents, they're all not religious. He can't keep shabas at home. It's almost impossible at this age. He wanted to at least make kdish and shabas. But where is he going to get grape juice from? He asked me if he could make kdish on soda. If he's yates kesh and shabas, that's an ura moment. Tishabove in the zone. Imashia asked one of her campers why she wants Msiah to come. She responded, "When Msiah comes, I will not have to hide my kosher food anymore." And that's a newer moment. There we were gathered at a see him for one of our tom mates who we'll call Robert. Robert who only a few short years ago and never even opened up a safer and here he was having completed one of the most difficult shas. Robert got up to speak and he said you know the Torah can be compared to a great vault. Ura is the key to that vault. My Torah mate is my guide leading me through the vault to find beautiful gems and stones. It's the Torah and the mitzvos. Ura, I can never thank you enough for all that you've done for me and how you've changed my life. There wasn't a dry eye in the room. Now that's an UA moment. Emptiness invades me. It penetrates my soul. Searching for the answers, the meaning of it all. Just when things seem hopeless, they start to come alive. All it takes is a moment to forever change my life.
