Day Two in L.A.
7 September 2011
The day started out at Chabad of Sherman Oaks in the Valley where Mr. Jay Abrams was interviewed . He told us about the blessing his wife received from the Rebbe during her pregnancy. She started feeling better the moment the Rebbe gave his blessing!
We then interviewed Rabbi Mordy Eibinder. What an amazing guy! He told us fascinating stories about his days as a Yeshiva student. One story that stands out happened when he was a young boy. He and his family had a private audience with the Rebbe. The Rebbe advised Rabbi Mordy that he study in Lubavitcher Yeshiva on Ocean Parkway. His mother complained to the Rebbe that he is so young and she is worried for him. The Rebbe responded, (not exact wording) “Er iz oif myn pleitzis – He is on my shoulders”. Basically meaning that the Rebbe will take care of him. A year and a half later, the Rebbe was still checking up on him and even asked Mordy’s brother-in-law to see how he was doing…
We then traveled to the house of Rabbi Moshe Weiss. He allowed us to conduct the interview in his beautiful library. I wish all interviews had this kind of space to work with! He also had fascinating stories to tell over and unfortunately we had to cancel our final interview for the day because Rabbi Weiss had so much to say.
See you tomorrow…
