For those who believe, anything is possible, and there are no questions. For those who don’t believe, there are no answers. So, although we didn’t know where the funds would come from, we believed and — together with the emissaries we recruited for the task — we managed to establish not only seven Chabad centers but twelve. The next day, our California delegation had an audience with the Rebbe during which we presented him with a silver crown to fit atop his personal Torah scroll. I also invited Rabbi Chaim Itche Drizin, who was then working in Northern California as a Talmud Torah teacher, to join us. I asked him, “How would you like to serve as an emissary with us?” And he responded “I’d love to.” During the audience, I pointed to Rabbi Drizin and said to hen the Rebbe turned seventy, he challenged his the Rebbe, “He will establish the first new Chabad House Wchasidim to establish seventy-one new institutions. of the seven that we promised.” I had the honor of being present at the farbrengen when the And the Rebbe looked at us and smiled.

  • My Plastic Pharoah by Tzvi Freeman So Here I Am, Scrubbing out the Crumbs from My Ergonomic Keyboard, Faxing in My Deed of Chametz Sale and Downloading a New Haggadah
    The World of Lubavitch A publication of Chabad-Lubavitch, Toronto APRIL 2017 Vol. 43 No. 1 (147) NISSAN 5777 My Plastic Pharoah By Tzvi Freeman So here I am, scrubbing out the crumbs from my ergonomic keyboard, faxing in my Deed of Chametz Sale and downloading a new Haggadah. In other words, its almost Passover already. I’ll soon be sitting at the Seder table with family and friends and the same question as with every one of these holidays is going to come up: What are we celebrating? What are we all here for? My kids tell me that’s no question: We’re here to celebrate our freedom. That’s what the holiday is called, “The Festival of Our Freedom.” We were slaves in Egypt, now we are free. So let’s get to the meal and celebrate. I’m glad they feel so free. As for me, I’m still a slave and Pharaoh, king of Egypt, never died. I labor for him all week long. He tricked me into it: First, he let me have all these nice things I really wanted for nothing. Later he started demanding money for them. When, one time, I didn’t pay all the money, he demanded even more money. So I have to keep working real hard to give him all the money he demands. I carry a picture of Pharaoh in his present incarnation in my wallet. It has his very intimidating new name engraved on it. He’s called “Master Card.” But my kids don’t go for that.
