Watching in Ireland. May God forgive us for turning our backs on Israel in it's hour of need. However there are great people who feel in their hearts some of your pain. God bless you all and may he continue to make you a beacon of light to all nations and all people. Israel as a whole continues to show up full of love afterall you have been through. I see you like oysters, the more harm you cause it the more pearls they produce.
Sending you all of my love ❤
Omg so inspiring❤
I love watching your channel. Im a Christian. I believe the Messiah already came and His Spirit dwells with those that have accepted His sacrifice and that we will never be alone. I love my Jewish friends and those I don’t know. I pray for your safety and for the world to stop hating you.
Such an emotional speech by Mr Hertzberg at his daughters levaya. Incredible, wow, you have a very special soul.
We need moshiach 😢❤
In 2,000 years, when rebbeim, moros, and parents teach their children the story of the catalyst that resulted in the rebuilding of the third בית הקדש, this is the story they will tell. This is the movement they will talk about at their festive Tisha B’Av seuda. I am sure of it. במהרה בימינו אמן
My father was a survivor who also lost a wife and two young children in the Shoah. It’s very hard to understand how he could go on, remain religious, eventually remarry, and have my sister and me. I always felt that our half-sisters lived on through us. B”H we married and brought up religious families and have 15 grandchildren between us. I wish my father could have seen his grandchildren grow up. Thank you for this incredibly moving film.
This was so inspiring. I am at work listening as a podcast and holding back the tears. To resilience 🥂
So sorry for the Herzbergs' losing Charlotte ע"ה and I am amazed at their גבורת הנפש. I have very fond memories of Rabbi Herzberg זצ"ל from camp Kol Ree Nah back in the early 80s
Erika thank you. Will you forgive us when we acknowledge your contributions? Is this a time for a new song?
Unbelievable!! Mi K'amcha Yisroel?!
I can't believe the holdup story was about 'shmeichel' I know him by this nickname from the years we lived in BP. He brings a smile to all the kids handing out lolly's and prizes making sure the kids say a brocho and keep smiling. He is incredible and im sure he's working on being a better person and taking his forgiveness earnestly!
Wow Im watching this with tears, Charlotte's story is very close to me, I live in Monsey and heard about her accident without details but it stirred something in me, as a mother of kids I cried for the pain the family and friends weere going through. And then I saw an ad in the Monsey mevaaser with a sweet picture of her pure smile and the shalom for Charlotte logo. That week my kids attended a carnival and came back with bracelets bearing the shalom for Charlotte logo and I told them thelittle I knew they can make sholom on day to day sibling rivalry l"n this sweet young girl. But my husband had heard more and shared with us where the shalom campaign started and it just brought me to tears, inspiring me to the next level. The strength the parents have to forgive and I hope the chavrusa can forgive himself as well I would never want to know the pain all of them are going through.
P.s. I cut out that little picture from the mevaaser ad and put it up on a kitchen cabinet to remind us here at home to keep shalom L"n Sheindel bas Chaim Yehuda Leib
Thank you. This film moved me to try and be a more forgiving person and struggle harder to hold fast to emunah at times of despair.
watched this 4 times since it aired. Cant get over it
My favorite channel, thank you 💙
I LOVE this documentary🙌And I LIVE Israel, and the Jewish people❤️🔥 It would be so helpful to us non-Jews if we could have the English definitions of the Beautiful Hebrew & Yiddish words you speak here… honestly, I deeply desire to understand.
Hashem is is protecting her
I was in her school she’s the sweetest it pains me
Wow Abie is Shmeichel guy!
Can’t stop thinking about this since yesterday I saw the video, Yudi and Chumi you are true heroes ❤️❤️❤️
What a way to transform a horrible tragedy into a source of light and love for too many people!! Your precious daughter is SO proud of you and so is hashem
I know everyone likes inspirational stories, my comment will be a bit different than most. My sincere condolences to the families on all the stories. Pinny you are a true hero and I wish you a full Nechama with gods help.
This Charlotte story should not be a mass production fly by night story looking for views which it did get. losing a loved one is a very long healing process and there are the five steps of acceptance which has to happen for healthy results. This poor family did not get that chance to mourn. as a member of the klal i want to apologies for being a consumer of this campaign that i believe is not in the families best interest. To the mom you are a beautiful mother and I wish for you only strength and comfort. i can imagine going viral at such a time in your life is hell even when it might be inspirational to some. May you and your family have the privacy and the real time to mourn your great loss. Wishing you and your family comfort and hope. For the klal, hope we can forgive in the right mind set and right time not from fly by night campaigns at the expense of families going through tragedy. Speak to your rebbei if you have a question on Mechila no need to look for content online or social media.
Forgiveness does good for those who forgive and being forgiven. Yeshua is coming back soon.
Yaakov is a tzaddik for not charging
Ashrei yoladeto! Who raised this hershkovitz man ? No words. this is how the generation of the geulah looks 🥹🙏. TFS, so much chizuk to be had and so shortly after he and his exquisite wife lost so much

Another very important and amazing point. Right after the robbery they felt that it was an inside job. Is that the reason they didnt press or file charges? I never heard about Abie doing time for Attempted murder; that would be a huge sentence normally. He was free. Does that mean that because they felt it was an inside job they didnt press charges and just went down the nurturing and forgiving road??????? If that is the case, that is so so huge!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! huge beyond words. Instead of jailing another yid; they knew they can make him come closer to Hashem through Teshuva. What Gadlus! Let me just say, this film is next level. Every single story. Every single lesson! I am going to make all my kids watch this during the summer.
Gracias por darme fuerzas para seguir!!!
Thanks HASHEM for everything
