Miracles are coming

As we come to the end of Chanukah, remember the Chanukah story... [Chabad.org]( By the Grace of G‑d Eighth Day of Chanukah - Zot Chanukah, 5783 Year of Hakhel December 26, 2022 Dear Friend, Happy Chanukah! After kindling all eight lights last night, we continue to publicize the Chanukah message today, during [Chanukah’s final hours](. And with the spiritual light of these past eight days we illuminate the darkness of the world around us during the entire year to come! Throughout the Chanukah holiday, and especially on its culminating day, we are also supposed to increase our charitable giving. Providentially, as the civil year winds down, there is yet additional focus on our charitable giving. Whether you itemize your tax return or not, this is certainly a good time to take stock. Let's remember the Chanukah story: There was only enough oil to light the Temple menorah for a single day. Yet, they faithfully kindled it – and it miraculously lasted for eight whole days, just the amount of time needed to produce new oil. When we do a good deed, a mitzvah, when we tangibly express our faith and trust in G-d, miracles are bound to follow. In that spirit, I hope you’ll join me in doing a good deed right now, as Chanukah comes to a close: [Can you please donate today to keep the “flame” going]( in these uncertain times?
