nice job shmuly, you always do it with class and with meaning,
and this time its on camera, 🙂
hatzlacha rabba, and we should all be inspired to do the same, like chassidus tells us to be lamp lighters.

Beautiful

The best of Yossi Polter- this shows his guta Neshama, beautiful voice, humor, and a true Chassid!

I like how you put your hand on the guys head over his Yamekah, very original Rabbi Polter.

It should merit both of you Shmuli and Yossi With Shiduchim Toivim B;koroiv, Umitoich Simcho Amitis Ad Bias Goiel Tzedek. L’chaim L’chaim – To Life my friends

Mr. Russ has the “Avodas Hatefiloh” look with the Tefillin on.
