**************************************

October 2013 marks the beginning of the 45th year
since Rabbi Chaim Jacobs arrived in Glasgow (shortly before he was married)
to set up Lubavitch of Scotland. Chaim and Sora first came to Glasgow
at the suggestion of Rabbi Jeremy Rosen, then minister of Giffnock shul.
When they first arrived they worked part time for Lubavitch and part time
as youth worker to Giffnock shul teaching in the Cheder four days a week,
and taking withdrawal classes at Kirkhill (120 children weekly!) and Thornliebank
primary school 25 children weekly.

Sora also taught in the Giffnock Cheder and the Glen Nursery School and
they both ran weekly Shabbos afternoon children's groups for up to
40/50 children weekly, a weekly girls cookery and handicraft Club for
teenage girls, and cookery classes for student girls, and Melave Malka Parties
for single men each week. Despite all the challenges over the years they
have never looked back and continue to serve the community
with commitment and dedication and look forward to continue doing so
for many years to come please G-d.
They and their children are proud to be part of the army of the
shluchim of the Lubavitcher Rebbe

Lubavitch of Scotland Annual Burns Supper

40 people attended the 7th annual Burns Supper at L'Chaim's Restaurant this
past Sunday evening. Sadly several people had to be turned away due to lack of space.
This annual event is held on the birthday of the famous scots poet born over 250 years ago.
The entire event was planned and organised by Sora Jacobs who is co director
of Lubavitch Scotland and manager of L'Chaim's Restaurant and Kosher Catering.
The meal served was a traditional Burns night supper enjoyed by everybody.
Chairman of the evening was Steven Kayne who entertained
the guests with his wit and humour and told the guests about the
history of Robert Burns.

The toast to the haggis and reciting of Tam O'Shanter and other
Burns poetry was done by heart by David Clapham who kept the
assembled amused throughout the evening by his enthsiastic recitations.

The reply to the toast to the lasses was given by Sorelle
Kayne who extolled the virtues of a Jewish mother.

During the course of the evening Rabbi Jacobs spoke about the
26th yahrzeit of rebetzen Chaya Mushka Schneerson, wife of the Lubavitcher Rebbe
and about the special relationship between the Lubavitcher Rebbe and Ariel Sharron.
It was the Rebbe who advised Sharron to build and use pontoon bridges to cross
the Suez Canal in 1973 Yom Kippur war. The Rebbe was involved in the design of the
Pontoon bridges used by Nato allies for the Normandy landing at the end of the second war.

A special heart rendering thank you to all the guests was given by Sora Jacobs.
She said that despite the challenges Lubavitch face in the community, it is the
friends and guests who attend our events who encourage us to keep organising
more and more events all the time.
