“This is What Changed My Life”

By COLlive reporter

Crown Heights residents Avremel Piekarski, Levi Jacobson and Chony Milecki speak from a personal perspective about what they have been lacking for years and what they discovered to infuse their life with meaning.

The short film, filmed one year ago by Shlomo Chaim Rivkin of Rivkin Media, is a revealing look at 3 Crown Heights businessmen who relate that learning the Rebbe’s Torah has completely changed their lives.

The film was produced by Vaad Or V’Chom Hahiskashrus in conjunction with their successful campaign last year to mark ‘Seventy Years Strong’, that united Chabad communities around the world in learning and finishing the Rebbe’s Torah in preparation for the 70th anniversary of the Rebbe’s ascension to the nesius on Yud Shevat.

On the occasion of the Rebbe’s 70th birthday in 1972, the Rebbe emphasized that reaching 70 years isn’t a time to slow down and rest, rather it is actually the time to evaluate our accomplishments till this point and begin working with even greater strength to double our achievements.

So though the actual milestone of 70 years may be coming to an end, its message of strength and growth continues, only getting stronger.
