LIVE Broadcast: Light Will Win: A gathering of unity and remembrance

Thirty days on, Chabad of Bondi and the Sydney community come together to pause, remember, and stand united as we commemorate the 30 days of mourning for the Kedoshim, holy martyrs, who were murdered sanctifying G-d’s name. We also pray for the injured, stand with their families, and affirm the values of faith, healing, and hope that carry us forward.

Chris Minns' speech was sincere and I believe he probably wrote his own speech as he is connected to the words as he spoke. Words must be followed by actions always.
May the families of the Kedoshim be comforted along with all the mourners of Jerusalem and Zion. Reply

Good🕯Morning,

In loving memory and support of the Chabad Bondi victims and family, friends, the Australian community, Israelis, and Jews throughout the Diaspora.

"You can count on me through thick and thin a friendship that will never end. When you are weak, I will be strong. Helping you to carry on. Call on me I will be there. . . Please believe me when I say you can count on me" [Houston and Winans]. I light my candle and join it with yours to be shining light against darkness and antisemitism throughout the world.

Light Will Win! 🕯

This should be an opportunity to give support to The Jewish Nation all over the world especially our Homeland Israel from where this entire episode began. October 7, 2023 should remain in the forefront of our minds.
Australia should be called upon to return to it's full and unwavering support for Holy Land of Israel and us it's B'nei Israel (Children of Israel). Am Yisrael Chai (Israel Lives As One)! Reply
