Dear Friends,

Many of us have been following the devastating building collapse in Surfside Florida. As we grieve for those who passed away and pray for the recovery of those who are unaccounted for, we are reminded that with all of the advances in engineering and technology, we can have absolute trust in G-d and G-d alone.

This Sunday begins the period of the "Three Weeks" when we commemorate the destruction of the Holy Temple in Jerusalem and the ensuing exile to this day. Our Sages tell us that the cause of the destruction of the Temple was lack of love for our fellow and the antidote is unconditional love.

Many of the Jewish residents of 8777 Collins were members of the Shul of Bal Harbour which is a few blocks away. If you would like to donate to assist the victims of this tragedy you can go to www.theshul.org/8777 to make a direct donation.

May the outpouring of love, empathy and togetherness bring about the end of all suffering and the coming of Moshiach!

Good Shabbos,

Rabbi Lazer & Rochel Lazaroff

Dear Friends,

This Sunday we will mark the 27th yahrtzeit of the Rebbe, z"l who transformed the Jewish world in his lifetime and whose impact continues to grow from year to year.

In honor of this special day, we will have a Farbrengen Kiddush this Shabbos to inspire one another to fulfill his wishes to make the world the best it can be with the coming of Moshiach.

On Sunday morning, Rochel and I will travel to NY to visit his resting place and and for the Rebbe's blessings for our community. If you have specific requests that you would like to convey please contact me and I will include you in my prayers.

With best wishes for a good Shabbos and an inspiring Gimmel Tammuz,

Rabbi Lazer & Rochel Lazaroff

Dear Friends,

As the summer rains begin, (which follows the spring, winter and fall rains) we once again bid farewell to our interns who served the community so faithfully throughout the year.

With the unusual circumstances that we all experienced this year, we are delighted that Mussy Schapiro joined us for a second year to provide comfort, friendship, companionship and joy to Aishel House residents and to the children of Chabad at the Medical Center.

Please join us this week's Shabbos kiddush as we thank her for her two years of service to the community and wish her well on her continued journey where we are certain she will continue to bring light to the world.

Rabbi Lazer & Rochel Lazaroff
