Kupa Shel Tzedaka RBSA

Dear RBS residents

The upcoming annual melava malka of the Kupa shel Tzedaka has been well publicised and the deadline date for inclusion in the yearly journal is fast approaching. This journal offers residents a once-a-year opportunity to pay tribute to the organisation as a whole, thank a particular volunteer, Rav or gabbai. I have the task of contacting approx 420 families by the cutoff date for publication of 22nd. January; an impossible task!

Frequently 2 or 3 calls have to be made in a very limited time frame in order to reach a decision maker and the more people I contact the more the volume of callbacks increase. Therefore I am appealing to the olam to help me in this most meritorious and worthwhile cause. You can make your public acknowledgement of your appreciation for the above mentioned categories by the following methods:-
1. Contact the office by phone at 995 1111; fax 995 1112.
2. Contact me at 999 6081.
3 Email RBSTzedaka@Gmail.com.
Payments can be made in cash, cheque or credit card and can be divided into as many payments as you wish throughout the year. Israeli/American/Canadian tax receipts available on request.

Maaser money may be used.

The Bostoner on Earthquakes

The earthquake here in eretz yisroel was felt sometime after midnight. In the morning one chossid jokingly said it was Hashem rocking us in bed like a mother rocking her child in a cradle.

During Shalosh Seudos the Rebbe shlit"a said that after feeling the earthquake in the middle of the night he was pondering the meaning of trembling and awe and fear of G-d what we call in lashon hakodesh, Yiras Shamayim with retes, ziya and ra'ada.

The Rebbe gave a mashal using the parable of a tuning fork, where once hit the fork resonates a tone. One tine of the fork is hit however the companion tine shkes as well. Scientifically this is due to sound waves which are oberservable phenomonen in water. If I throw a pebble into water the water waves ripple and I can see the movement. This is tru in air as well but our eyes cannot observe it.

The Rebbe explained that what is true in the physical world holds true spiritually as well. If my neighbor quakes and shakes the message is that I must be shaking and trembling as well. Sometimes Hashem's message is that we have to unite and feel eachother's pain and fear. Perhaps this is one of the lessons of yiras shamayim.
