Convention 2014- Rabbi Sampson, Director of Project Inspire

I'd like to call in Rabbi Fine [Applause] Samson. The hour is late, so I won't speak too long. It's probably nice to have two British accents in one session. I thank my ghost for joining us this weekend. I have to say that for myself it's a little bit of an alarm that Bar was to have a 26 year relationship with no wine moves himself and to meet Rab Gman who had that same passion that care that love for based Israel it's a little bit of an I thank you for And used to say something that we've said before, but he used to say when he talked about starting Asia Torah and he said, "I didn't know how to start an organization." What did I know about organizations? But I knew one thing that if the father has a child who's drowning and you can say that if you have some rope and you say to the father, "Give me some rope." Is he going to give you the rope? Of course he'll give you the rope. You're going to save his children. You're going to save his child. So he used to say the Rabber Shalom has everything. If we're coming to shave his children, is he going to help us? Is he going to give us the rope? Of course, he's going to give us the robe. It was mentioned that this evening is also dedicated to Schustster, somebody who came to us. Did he know what to do? But what did he do? Brought back tens of thousands of people by going up to people and saying, "Do you have the time? Would you like to come and meet a wise man? Would you like to go to yeshiva?" Very simple things, but he cared and he brought back thousands, tens of thousands of people. And I just like to thank, say, take this moment to thank my own wife. And I thank my wife for everything that's happening. Thank you so much. My own wife as a teenager and she was traveling through Israel and she was all pun. She took a few days off and she went to where did she end up? At the heritage house, Rabbi May Schustster's heritage house. And he asked her, "What are you doing here?" And she said, "I came to learn Hebrew on an opa." He said, "But why do you want to do that? She said, "Well, so I could buy a loaf of bread and in Israel and say it in Hebrew. So he said, "So if I understand you correct, you came to Israel so you can buy a loaf of bread and say it in Hebrew. And that's all he said. He was a man of few words." And that got my wife thinking. And brother Hashem, it was so good to have her on a journey. Thank you. And he was someone what did he know but for all of us and this is my message we don't know do you know what to do how do we reach out I don't know what to do when no one didn't know what to do and look what he did so let's follow his example and have that in that the almighty will give us the rope if we just care and we try we have to put in some and Rahman, we know the situation of Kalisel is dire. But if all of us here today, the 1,300 people, whoever it is, all try a little think of one person that you can reach out to, one person that you'll try to reach out to. Raen said earlier to me that just the fact that so many people came here just to try because they care is changing all of us that in of itself if we go back and try and leave we're not going to ask you to take out your cell phone but think of something leave as think of something think of a person think of an idea just like no wife can sell an idea it's like Gman had an idea look what happened you can have an idea idea as we learned from light roman believe in yourself and I have believe in the country and pleasure will treat people better. Thank you. [Applause]
