A story of Rebbetzin Shterna Sara

During the war, the Yeshivas Tomchei Temimim of
Poland suffered a lot financially. They just didn’t
have enough money. One of the plans they made
was to cut back on the food they provided for their
students for breakfast, lunch and supper.

When the students realized that barely any
food was being offered, they made a strike
and they said it’s better not to go in the
lunchroom then receive the small amount of
food they are serving.

Soon the whole town was talking about the
students not eating anything and starving in
school.
On the 2nd morning of the hunger strike, Rebbetzin Shterna
Sara called those in charge to a meeting. She told them she
understood that money was tight but “YOU ARE
WITHOLDING FOOD FROM MY CHILDREN?”

From then on, the Rebbe’s and Rebbetzin’s
children were fed properly.
The lesson we learn from this story
This
story applies to me, you and all the
shluchim as we reflect on the work and dedication
of the Shluchim Office in applying the words of
Rebbetzin Shterna Sara to provide us, the Rebbe’s
children with “Food for the Neshama”.
They work tirelessly to ensure that not only do
we have plenty of spiritual food and nourishment
but also that it should be spiced with fun,
creativity, warmth and most importantly the right
measurement of Chassidishkeit.
Thank you Shlcuhim office for going above and
beyond to make sure that we the shluchim, the
Rebbe’s children don’t go hungry in our mokom
hashlichus where proper “food for our
neshama”- “chinuch”, is not available.
