Rav�Lau to Deliver Hespad at�Kfar Chabad:�

Rav Yisrael Meir Lau to Tael Aviv Chief Rabbi Yisrael Meir Lau Shlita will be among those delivering a hesped for the Kedoshim in Kfar Chabad. Tonight, the Rav had a few emotional words to share � a synopsis follows:

"In my heart, I already knew on Thursday afternoon that the wonderful couple was no longer.� Regarding the others, I did not know?.

His Shlichus was Vayeshev, Yaakov sent him to inquire regarding Yosef. Knowing he is hated, a 17-year-old on a mission and he is afraid, but he accepts the command from his father. Yosef in his response to Yaakov says one word, "Heneini? and this was Rav Gavriel, who was sent by the Rebbe, a young boy on a mission, responding to the Rebbe�s word.

Around the calendar year, Chabad Shluchim provide substance for mitzvos, matzah, 4 minim, wine, kosher poultry, and a never-ending list, with love and a smile � around the world.

The Shluchim do this, spreading the light of torah to the most remote places. The thought of having to be maspid such people tear one�s heart from the inside out.

The Rav went on to expound, to mention names of the many families who he was maspid, terror victims, but he said Moishele � "Moishele brings tears to my heart, tearing it to shreds?.

He knows nothing. He justifiably cries yelling "ima? "abba? seeking a hug, their warm embrace � this is a young Jewish boy torn asunder � in any language one understands � but Moishele is the pillar of hope for the future.

All our hope now focuses on this young child, a two-year-old who shoulders must now bear the weight of our hopes.

The grandparents, the Rosenbergs, will now bring Moishele home and raise him and in all likelihood, he will turn into a major source of new light for Am Yisrael in the future.

The Rav�s words are especially poignant, he too a child survivor, one who lost his parents, emerging from the fires and hell of Buchenwald at a young age.
