[Music] I can't go. [Music] Oh, you really [Applause] [Music] there. After the six day war, I decided I will go to a place in volunteer myself. I decided I will go to Mikdalah. Mikdalah was the worst place in Israel. Crime, drugs, every day the paper problems. I walk day and night with the youngsters in jail, in the discourse, in the parks, in the streets. But when you see them face to face, you see the good people. They have a soul. They have a feeling what happened, why they involved in crime, why they in jail. When you look inside, you understand they come from broken home. They never receive love. They never receive education. And this make me to understand that if you will give them love, give them education. Give them a home. Give them clothing, medical, they can be the best kids. They can be lawyers and doctors in everything. [Music] Each and every one of us in Israel, we are all interconnected other. We have to keep our eyes open and be alert. They are our friends, our acquaintances, our family. We have to redirect them and explain to them what Torah is all about. To bring them closer to Hashem, to bring their children back to Torah, to educate them in Torah. There are already a few rabbis, great Torah scholars who have merited to perform this great mitzvah, like Rabbi Gman. What does he do? He goes out and saves children. Now they sit and learn Torah. I went to see. What a pleasure. [Music] He brought them closer to Hashem. May his name be praised. What an amazing person he is, Rabbi Gman. When you see such a person, you should recite a blessing. If only we had more Torah scholars and individuals so involved in such holy matters. They are guaranteeing the future of Torah. How fortunate they are. I am envious of them. If only I had such a merit. [Music] Amen. Amen. [Applause] [Music] Amen. [Applause] I wanted him to be chief rabbi but he refused. He said no I am doing the work of Hashem. I don't want to be chief rabbi no matter how much I tried to convince him. He said I have work to do and I was born for this purpose. This is why I was created. He rejected the greatness. He rejected the honor just so that he could dedicate himself to these students. He works hard in building up this empire of 6,000 students. One needs a lot of money. It requires millions. Millions. Fortunate are the people that support such a person. One who does so will merit to be part of the holiness of the nation of Israel. We are like their mother and father. We provide them with a home and with love. If it means clothing them from head to toe or providing them with medical help, we give them whatever they need. Our kitchens provide about 10,000 meals a day to different institutions and soup kitchens. After my parents were killed in a car accident, I felt all alone in this world. But Rabbi Gman was there for me. And he believed in me that I would succeed in life. I had nothing. No family, no friends. Today, I have everything. For 50 years, Rabbi Gman has been taking care of underprivileged children. He's provided for their education, for their welfare. He's enabled them to become productive members of Israeli society. is I got George. [Applause] [Music] headed. One wounded soldier was so critically injured that doctors placed him in a medicallyinduced coma, but had little hope for him. Not Rabbi Gman. He prayed for him by his bedside. He placed a special coin from the holy lever rebi. He placed it upon the wounded soldier's head. The next day, miraculously, he awoke. You help Mikdal to help the kids and you help Amis. Thank you.
