most of you probably remember may 1994.
what's the reference to may 1994 well
for me it's a girl by the name of siri
feldman
you remember siri feldman everybody knew
about what happened to her
14 year old girl gets lost in the woods
on a trip with her school
near connecticut massachusetts and there
was an unprecedented
outcry of what are we going to do to
find this girl
thousands of people from all over
actually made the trip
boarded buses stayed up all night
brought provisions
lanterns flashlights anything possible
to save this one little girl it was an
unbelievable
experience for anyone who was there and
for anyone who had heard about it
and all of us still remember it today
what an unbelievable thing that was
i always think about that and i say you
know there's one girl
there's a girl who's lost in the woods
and of course she's important
every nephesh is important whoever we
can save is important
we're all children of of the
urbanization level but at the same time
when you think about it it was her
physical
health that was in danger we're
wondering how long can she last in the
woods
when are we going to find her what are
we going to do what's going to be her
condition when we do find her
will we find her alive it was just
shocking and then i think was a friday
i was walking on the streets of flatbush
and suddenly i heard
people singing dancing jumping they
found her it was on the radio
wins you remember what it was like
people always remember
where was i when suri feldman was found
that's how important it was and now
we're here today
and we look at what's happening with the
jewish people and we know that it's not
just
one sir development but it's millions
literally millions of nathoshas that are
lost in the woods
not only in connecticut not only in
massachusetts
but everywhere where are the lanterns
where are the buses where is the outcry
of
help we need to stop the assimilation we
need to stop what's happened to the
devastation
of the spirit the jewish people
of course that's what we have to do
whenever we find someone in danger
but when claude israel is in danger in a
big way when a kurdish bar whose
children
are in danger with millions of nepheshas
getting lost
we need to have that same kind of outcry
when you're sitting back in your rooms
and you're wondering you're turning on
the computer and you're looking at this
and saying
what can i do think of siri feldman
everybody jumped people said tell him
people did something
people that took on a special takana
something
that's what we need to do think about
siri feldman think about what one person
means
and then multiply it to hundreds and
thousands and even millions
we need to get on the buses bring the
flashlights to provisions
and saying we need to help save the
jewish people
