- “I was 12 when the Nazis invaded my hometown of Gribov, Poland in 1939. And I have not had my Bar Mitzva yet...” - Mr. Lemel (Leon) Shegrin.
During the interview with my father, who runs @theyizkorfoundation2620 - a project he started almost 30 years ago, interviewing holocaust survivors, and getting their story, mostly in Yiddish. - Mr Lemel (Leon) who lives now in Florida, shared his incredible story of survival, and how BH he was saved - because of a horse.
At multiple times throughout the interview, Mr. Shegrin (born in Oct 1926) expressed how he missed out on having a proper Bar Mitzvah. Getting an Aliyah leTorah, or putting on Tefilin.
After sharing this tidbit with my brother Yossi (who shares passion in my fathers project) he advised him to actually make one for him, now.
After contacting Pinny from @LatestTalks and Rabbi Feldbrand from Kehilas Kedishas Levi of North Miami Beach, they pulled together this incredible event, 3 days later.
I’m honored to have been a part of such an incredible and once in a lifetime experience, and I’m glad to be able to share this experience with the world.
The one thing I, personally, took out from meeting Lemel, is that we should stick together, and not ever let go of our “Yiddish Culture”.
He repeated multiple times how we should not look at how we dress (Levush), but where we come from. Money doesn’t mean anything.
Be Mentchlich, respectful and kind to others, and to keep the Yiddish language spoken.
Thanks for watching, and I hope it was inspiring.

Where is he from originally? I hear he's speaking chassidish Yiddish but he was 12 at the start of the war,so I thought he came from Austria or Germany...or was he from Poland? He mentioned the Stutchiner Rebbe...
Why weren't you invited

I am so eternally thankful for the Chabad of North Fulton contacting your Chabad. They have been so kind,visiting Leon regularly and now this! He was overjoyed to tell me all about it. I live him so very much. He truly is special.

@@abuzolfiqar2122 only on haters like you they think so. not on ordinary people.
@@abuzolfiqar2122 really?! what kind of Ger were you? doesn't seem like a legit one, if you ended up becoming Muslim...
@@abuzolfiqar2122 ''because gerim aren't really jews'' - ?
@@yeudaferer2517 What kind of ger is he? He’s eruv rav
@@abuzolfiqar2122 You please quote for me even one source in Halacha that indicates that. I can quote you many sources in Talmud and in Jewish Law about the special status a Ger has!
So touching!
Beautiful 😢❤
Happy Bar Mizvah!

Which hasidic sect do these Hasidim belong to?
Satmar
I dont think satmar at all. I think Bobov or then no one sect but just varied. Def NOT Satmar.
Any thing other than Chabad Lubuvitch,
@@michaeldunetz90 Chabad are amazing.
Awesome, totally Awesome
Mazel Tov!
