Mezuza 400 km from Tokyo
400 Km away from Tokyo, in the mountains of Gifu, live a Jewish family. Chanit and Tal have lived in Japan for 15 years, together with their 5 children. Recently, they moved to a new house, and they asked if Rabbi Edery would come to put up the mezuzah. Rabbi Edery together with the Edery family drove to put up the mezuzah and make the first 100% kosher BBQ in Gifu. Mazal tov! May Hashem bless you with only good news in your new house.
What does a Yeshiva student do during the summer?
David Moshe Abitan came to volunteer this summer in the Chabad House to help out in all the activities, kosher food preparation and supervision, assisting with the children and anything that was necessary. This is a great way to spend ”vacation”, by helping others. We would like to wish David Moshe a good and sweet year, and may you go from strength to strength!
Torah Lesson by Dayan Weiss in Tokyo
Rabbi Edery visits Jewish detainees and prisoners daily, giving them moral support and uplifting their spirits. This week was the trial of one of Jewish boys being detained. The Dayan Weiss from Belgium who took on himself the financial burden of the case and all legal details involved, came for the trial. During this week, he gave a Torah lecture regarding the laws of territories on the Sabbath, and the importance of keeping the stringencies of kosher food laws even in far off places like Japan. There are no words to describe the commitment and self sacrifice of all those involved. May G-d repay them with all the blessings of the Torah. May they be released speedily!
Best Quality Kosher Green Tea
Recently Rabbi Edery visited a Green tea factory in Fukuoka, Japan to supervise the process and give kosher certification. The company is one of the biggest and most famous in Japan. It has a long time reputation for the finest and tastiest green tea. A big thank you to Muto san for organizing and being on the forefront to creating a kosher infrastructure in Japan.
New Beautiful Frame
A big Thank you to Shaul Ben Dayan for the beautiful frame that he built for the Chabad House’s picture of the Rebbe. On the picture it says- Moshiach promises ”No Jew will be left in Exile”. This is referring to the Messianic era, when G-d will gather the Jews from all corners of the world and bring them to the Holy Land. The owner of Shaul’s factory asked him about the Rebbe and what the wording meant on the picture. After Shaul explained about the Rebbe’s work and accomplishments to prepare the world for Moshiach, the Japanese owner was very moved and offered to pay for the wood and any materials necessary for the frame. In the picture above, you can see Shaul on the right with the Japanese owner in the middle holding the Rebbe’s picture with Rabbi Edery.
