Thank You

 Dear Friends, 

I want to take a moment this Thanksgiving day to thank Hashem (G-d) for giving me ..... 
.... life  
.... health 
.... family 
.... shelter 
.... a wonderful wife 
.... beautiful daughters 
.... a warm and welcoming community 

I want to thank YOU  
.... for allowing me into your life 
.... for our joint spiritual growth 
.... for your past and future support of Chabad's work 
.... for your touching feedback 
.... for your constructive critisicim 
.... for your advice 

In this weeks Torah portion - the words thank you are introduced to the world, as the Talmud says in tractate Brachos R. Yochanan further said in the name of R. Shimon bar Yochai: From the day that the Holy One, blessed be He, created His world there was no man that praised the Holy One, blessed be He, until Leah came and praised Him. For it is said: This time will I praise the Lord. 

What are you thankful for? 

Happy Thanksgiving and have a wonderful Shabbos 

Rabbi Kushi Schusterman
