A
A
Ladies
and
gentlemen,
happy
Hanukkah,
if
everyone
can
make
your
way
over
this
way,
grab
some
latkes
a
donut,
make
sure
you
have
a
Hanukkah
menorah
to
light
afterwards
at
home,
they're
there
on
the
table
for
the
taking.
Ladies
and
gentlemen
on
the
count
of
three,
can
we
get
a
happy
Hanukkah
one,
two,
three
happy
Hanukkah!
A
Thank
you
to
each
and
every
one
of
you
for
being
here
to
celebrate
the
first
night
of
Hanukkah
together
in
Chelsea,
Square
and
I.
Just
want
to
mention
that
all
of
these
events
that
happen,
they
don't
happen
on
their
own.
They
happen
because
a
group
of
people
start
thinking
about
it
a
few
months
ago
and
one
person
in
particular
who's
been
instrumental
and
her
leadership
has
been.
A
You
know
mind-boggling
over
the
past
few
years,
as
we
bring
this
event
to
more
and
more
people
and
more
layers
of
this
event
has
been
Mimi
grainy
from
the
city
of
Chelsea.
Thank
you
very,
very
much
for
your
leadership
here
and
what
we
have
is
a
menorah
lighting,
like
we've
done
every
year
for
the
past
five
years.
This
would
be
your
number
six
of
the
public
manure
lighting.
A
Here
in
Chelsea
Square
and
we
have
the
brighter
together
art
installation
from
J
Arts
Boston
with
artists,
Tova,
speeder
artist,
tovis
Peter
is
here
and
I
encourage
all
of
you
to
make
your
way
over
there
as
soon
as
we
finish
with
the
menorah
lighting
to
take
part
in
this
incredible
city-wide
or
it's
all
across
the
region,
all
across
Eastern,
Massachusetts,
Shoals
synagogues,
temples,
youth
groups
all
took
part
in
creating
the
the
medium
that
was
used
to
create
this
incredible
art
installation.
A
So
thank
you
to
Jay
arts
for
being
here
and
artist
of
this
beautiful.
If
you're
being
here
and
I,
encourage
you
all
to
take
part.
A
In
addition,
we
have
representatives
from
the
Walnut
Street,
synagogue,
Eddie
metros.
Thank
you
for
your
leadership
and
help
put
this
together
and
we
have
Rabbi
Aksana
Chapman
from
Temple,
Emanuel,
Chelsea
and
we'll
hear
from
her
as
well.
Tonight.
A
And,
of
course,
thank
you,
cars,
city
manager,
Mr,
Tom
and
rosino-
he's
been
here
every
year
for
the
past
five
years
and
we're
glad
that
you
could
be
here
again
with
us.
It's
really
incredible
to
live
in
Liberty.
A
That
makes
sure
that
every
group,
every
religion
here
in
the
city
is
well
represented
and
has
the
ability
to
celebrate
out
here
in
such
a
public
way
and
I
just
want
to
mention
how
beautiful
it
is
to
drive
down
Broadway
for
the
past
two
years
and
have
the
the
menorahs
on
all
the
street
calls
it's
it's
it's
a
beautiful
thing
as
a
Jewish
person
living
here
in
Chelsea
to
have
that
kind
of
representation.
B
Foreign
walking
from
there
up
to
here,
I
was
thinking.
Maybe
I
will
get
inspired
to
say
something
really
great,
so
I'm
still
working
on
that.
So
one
of
the
lessons
that
Hanukkah
teaches-
and
there
are
a
few
of
them-
against
assimilation
against
being
like
everyone
else,
giving
your
own
identity
being
yourself
I
think
that's
an
awesome
lesson.
B
Another
lesson
from
Rabbi
hilwell.
He
teaches
us
to
start
with
one
candle
and
increase
the
light
as
we
go
on
through
a
base
of
Hanukkah
versus
Rabbi
shamai.
He
wanted
us
to
start
with
eight
and
decrease
so
increasing.
The
light
is
also
an
amazing
blossom
because
we
trying
to
increase
the
light
in
our
own
life
in
the
lives
of
our
families,
our
communities
Chelsea.
B
Oh
my
God,
and
the
last
thing
that's
on
my
mind,
of
course
very
closely
to
me,
because
I
have
family
in
Ukraine.
I
have
friends
in
Russia.
Both
of
my
walls
are
on
fire
and
I.
Just
want
the
miracle
and
amazing
help
from
the
United
States
and
the
whole
world
support
and
what
whether
we
are
helping
and
we
need
the
miracle
of
Ukraine
to
win.
Just
like
The
Maccabees,
a
small
group
of
Maccabees,
one
big,
a
huge
Army
in
those
times.
B
A
C
Welcome
everybody,
happy
Hanukkah,
and
what
I
was
thinking
of
is
the
Festival
of
Lights,
and
here
we
are
with
the
lights,
the
lights
in
the
city
and
also
the
lights
within
us
to
help
make
it
a
better
world
for
everybody,
and
the
turnout
is
great,
and
so
all
of
us,
working
together
will
make
it
a
better
life,
a
better
world,
better
life
and
think
of
it
that
way
so
I.
Thank
you
from
the
Walnut
Street
synagogue.
C
A
Mr
Tom
and
rosino
city
manager
of
Chelsea.
D
Well,
thank
you
very
much.
Rabbi
I
just
want
to
welcome
everyone
here
tonight
and
happy
Hanukkah
to
all
these
kind
of
events.
I
think
are
very
important.
It's
important
for
local
government
to
celebrate
these
events
that
have
such
significance
to
an
important
constituency
in
the
city,
and
certainly
the
Jewish
Community,
has
been
such
an
important
part
of
this
Chelsea
Community
for
such
a
long
long
time.
D
I
love
about
a
celebration
like
this
is
It's
So,
illustrative
of
how
Chelsea
has
been
so
welcoming
to
so
many
different
faiths,
so
many
different
cultures
and
continues
to
do
so
to
this
day.
It's
why
I
have
loved
being
city
manager
here,
because
of
the
way
the
city
has
always
respected
people,
no
matter
where
they're
from
what
their
circles
have
been.
It
has
embraced
them.
It
has
has
reached
out
and
helped
them
at
the
time
of
need.
D
Thank
you
all
for
coming
out
and
just
on
behalf
of
the
city,
whether
you're
celebrating
in
the
next
few
weeks,
a
miracle
like
tonight
or
some
other
Miracle
to
come,
or
some
spiritual,
significant
event
or
whether
you're
just
going
to
take
a
few
days
off
and
relax.
I
hope.
All
of
you
have
a
very
healthy
and
joyous
holiday
season.
A
So
today,
I
was
I
was
thinking
a
lot
about
a
a
person
very
close
to
me,
or
one
of
my
one
of
my
role
models
growing
up
who
unfortunately,
passed
away
two
years
ago
to
that
today,
the
day
before
Hanukkah,
two
years
ago,
my
my
Bobby
Rosenberg,
my
grand
my
maternal
grandmother,
passed
away,
Miriam
Rosenbloom
and
we
back
at
home.
Those
of
you
who
have
met
baby
Miriam
know
how
much
how
important
she
is.
Coming
a
year
after
my
grandmother
passed
away.
A
We
have
a
baby
Miriam
born
here
in
Chelsea,
named
after
Miriam
Rosenberg,
who
was
it's
a
very,
very
important
person
to
me
and
a
role
model
in
this
work
that
stands
before
us
the
work
of
bringing
light,
which
is
really
what
Hanukkah
is
all
about.
I
want
to
share
with
you
a
lesson
that
she
taught
me
there's
a
very,
very
famous
question.
That's
asked
about
the
lights
on
the
menorah.
A
We
famously
celebrate
for
eight
nights,
because
the
Maccabees,
the
Jewish
soldiers,
when
they
re-entered
the
temple,
only
had
enough
oil
to
last
for
one
night
and
they
lit
the
menorah
and
miraculously
lasted
for
eight
nights.
So
how
many
nights
of
Miracle
are
there,
the
seven
miracles,
the
first
one
wasn't
a
miracle.
So
what
what
really
are
we
celebrating?
Why?
Why
do
we
celebrate
tonight
with
that
first,
candle
in
the
middle
and
yes,.
A
A
That's
asked
in
the
time
with
those
40
answers,
but
there's
one
answer
that
my
grandmother
taught
me
that
really
speaks
to
me
and
that
I
want
to
share
with
you,
which
is
that
the
the
first
night
was
not
a
miracle
of
of
the
oil
lasting
it's
that
they
lit
the
menorah
in
the
first
place,
because
if
you
re-enter
the
temple-
and
you
find
it
in
shambles-
and
you
only
have
enough
oil
to
last
for
one
night
like,
would
you
even
bother
lighting
the
menorah?
A
Would
you
even
bother
trying
to
do
the
work
of
bringing
light
when
it's
just
going
to
go
out
tomorrow
and
it's
going
to
take
eight
days
until
you
have
more
more
oil,
a
lot
of
people
would
throw
up
their
hands
and
defeat
and
say
it's
too
hard.
It's
too
dark
there's
no
guarantee
that
I'm
going
to
succeed
in
this
work
of
bringing
light.
So
why
even
try.
A
The
Maccabees
had
faith
that,
even
though
they
didn't
they
didn't
know
how
it
was
going
to
happen.
They
knew
that
they
need
to
do
their
part
and
start
bringing
them
the
light
that
first
night
and
ultimately,
they
trusted
in
God.
That
God
would
do
the
rest
and
somehow
God
would
step
in
and
make
it
work
and
on
the
first
night
of
Hanukkah,
when
we
light
the
first
candle
we're
celebrating
that
Miracle
the
miracle
of
faith.
A
Now
my
grandmother
Bobby
Rosenberg
she
was.
She
was
that
kind
of
person
who
had
that
kind
of
thing.
I
know
it's
cold
out
here:
everybody's
kind
of
shivering,
Bobby
Rosenbloom
would
stand
outside
Giant
Eagle
on
Murray
Avenue
in
the
Squirrel
Hill
Neighborhood
of
Pittsburgh
every
single
day.
Okay,
she
taught
first
grade
in
the
morning
and
when
she
got
off
after
lunch,
she
would
go
down
to
the
Giant
Eagle
and
offer
people
opportunities
to
do
Mitzvahs,
but
not
just
Jewish
people.
It
wasn't.
You
know
she
wasn't
only
catering,
the
Jewish
people.
A
A
20
across
the
world
you
know
like
in
Israel
or
in
in
you
know,
in
California
or
in
my
brother
met
someone
on
a
trip
to
Germany
who
had
one
of
those
good
goals:
okay,
now
they're
they're
patented
they're
only
from
Bobby
Roosevelt.
It
means
that
someone
somewhere
passed
by
a
giant
eagle
on
Murray
Avenue
in
the
Squirrel
Hill
Neighborhood
of
Pittsburgh,
and
got
that
good
car
from
Bobby
Rosenberg.
A
So
she
was
like
The
Maccabees,
very
bold
in
her
approach
to
Bringing
light
and
served
as
a
role
model.
For
me
on.
A
A
A
But
the
the
Hasidic
Masters
to
talk
about
a
righteous
person
wearing
a
fur
coat
with
a
little
bit
of
this
thing
like
listen,
he
wears
a
fur
coat
right,
he's
taking
care
of
himself
because
there's
another
option
when
it's
dark
outside
and
it's
cold
outside
for
how
to
stay
warm
and
how
to
have
light,
which
is
too
thank
you
light
a
fire
light,
a
fire
and
when
you
light
a
fire,
you
allow
other
people
to
gather
around
and
benefit
from
that
same
light
and
that
same
work
and
that
lighting
of
fire
is
what
we're
celebrating
by
letting
them
know
get
into
the
nitty-gritty
of
the
darkness
in
the
world
and
the
and
in
the
air.
A
Like
like
Bobby
Rosenblum
taught
me,
it
takes
Faith
right,
it's
almost
a
miracle
when
you
find
somebody
daring
enough
to
take
on
the
darkness
like
who's
gonna,
take
on
the
dogs,
but
Bobby
Roosevelt
taught
me
that
you
got
to
be
full.
You
got
to
be
daring,
you
have
to
be
daring
in
that
thing,
and
you
know
she
also
taught
me
that
it's
easier
to
it's
easier
to
I'm
gonna
mess
it
up.
A
She
said:
don't
ask
permission
right
it's
easier
to
to
ask
for
forgiveness
than
it
is
to
ask
for
permission
right
so
be
bold
in
in
recognizing
a
need.
When
you
see
somebody
in
pain,
you
see
somebody
suffering
take
action,
maybe
maybe
it'll
be
misguided.
Maybe
you'll
mess
up.
You
can
always
apologize
right
better
than
stay.
You
know
standing
back
and
not
taking
action
and
God
forbid
missing
an
opportunity
to
alleviate
some
suffering
in
this
world.
A
A
Starting
small,
starting
with
that
person
right
next
to
you,
expand
that
Circle
ever
outward
to
the
most
that
you
can
do
and
if
we
can
all
walk
away
from
tonight.
With
that
in
mind,
those
people
who
are
going
to
help
that
group
who
are
going
to
help
that
initiative
that
we're
going
to
start
I
I,
don't
think
it's
an
exaggeration
to
say
that
we
can.
We
can
change
the
world.
A
A
Not
this
will
change
and
to
alleviate
the
suffering
of
people,
but
we
may
never
ever
meet
without
further
Ado
I'd
like
to
invite
the
city
manager
to
light
the
shamish.
The
Center
branch
on
the
menorah
is
the
branch
that
serves
all
the
other
brands
branches
and,
as
a
representative
of
our
city
hall,
all
of
the
the
people
who
serve
us
serve
the
community
on
a
daily
basis.
A
F
F
G
E
I
So
this
is
a
traveling
exhibit
done
by
the
Jewish
Arts
collaborative
in
Boston.
The
artist
is
Tova
speeder
and
it's
it's
called
Brightwood
United,
the
animated
question
behind
all
of
it
is
what
is
it
that
brings
you
to
action
to
do
good
deeds
in
this
season
of
light
and
not
just
Hanukkah,
but
really
so
many
holidays.
This
time
of
year
bring
light
to
the
darkness,
and
this
is
one
more
event.
Over
450
people
participated
in
putting
in
these
pegs
together
and
the
pegs
represent.
I
I
In
essence,
when
you're
putting
a
peg
in
the
wall,
it's
like
you're,
you're
lighting,
a
candle
for
someone-
you
don't
even
know,
but
also
for
yourself
and
that's
how
we
bring
light
in
in
this
time
of
Hanukkah
in
this
time
of
year,.
