In every Jewish household, there is a lot to be done, and children help a lot. But in a Chabad House, and especially in Japan, there is so much to do on an every day basis.
The Edery children help to measure and make tens of kilograms of Challah, package them, help with kosher food deliveries. They also travel by themselves to visit people in prison, even 2 hours away by train. They clean, peel, cut, and prepare for the many guests that come. When Rabbi and Mrs. Edery are busy tending and helping out, the children help the younger ones and watch them. They answer the phone, give directions, meet and pickup up guests and bring them to the Chabad Tokyo. They often escort Rabbi Binyomin on his many rounds: building sukot, blessing on the 4 species, Chanuka Mobile- giving out candles and chanuka treats, putting up mezuzot or just house visits.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank Rabbi Avrohom Kenig who wakes up 4:30 am, Israel time to teach the children Torah!
The kids helped make 40 kg of Gefilte fish. This means peeling the skin, deboning, grinding and forming the fish. This is fresh Salmon from Tsukiji.

ShofarTokyo3   Throughout the month of Elul, Rabbi Binyomin Edery goes all around Tokyo, and the outskirts to blow the Shofar for people. In homes, offices, hotel lobbies, exhibitions, or just on the street, the Rabbi blows, to awaken the souls of Japan. The listeners are moved and inspired. This week, there was an annual Gift Show in Tokyo Big Sight. Rabbi Edery met many Jewish people, some from Tokyo, and some from overseas. One of the exhibitors commented : ''to hear the shofar in Tokyo, within all the materialism, truly awakens the deepest part of you. That is when you really see that G-d is everywhere, and how much we are so connected to Him.'' May we hear the Shofar heralding the coming of the Rebbe Melech Hamoshiach NOW! Next Sunday, September 20, make sure to take your family to hear the Shofar, at Chabad House. In the pictures above, you can see Rabbi Edery blowing at the Gift Show.
