Sunday, Parshas Ki Sisa, 'B'tzeil HaKodesh' with the Satmar Rebbe shlit"a

The Satmar Rebbe shlit"a davened Shacharis in the Talmud Torah building, Binyan Hirsch-G"B-Landa, on Rutzfert Street (Rutledge), together with the talmidim of grades 6, 7 and 8 of the branch headed by Rabbi Naftali Hirtzka Friedman shlit"a.
Before davening, the Rebbe put tefillin on the following bar mitzvah bochurim:
The son of Rabbi Naftali Hirtzka Friedman shlit"a, the principal.
The bochur Berish Weiser.
The bochur Yoel Oberlander.
The bochur Eliezer Gold.
The bochur Aharon Yisroel Meir Teichman.
The bochur Yitzchak Feuerstein.
The bochur Yaakov Yochanan Mittelman.

After davening, a lechayim gathering took place. Songs were sung, and one of the children recited rhymes. The Rebbe drank a lechayim and wished the bar mitzvah bochurim, the rebbeim and all the children well. He shared words of Torah, saying that Purim was "they accepted it again with love," and that when one learns a piece of Gemara one must understand it and live with the Torah. He concluded with his holy blessing.

After the lechayim, the Rebbe went down to the second floor of the building to the Yeshiva Ketana, the Hashiv Moshe branch, headed by HaGaon Rabbi Shimon Avrohom Roth shlit"a. The Rebbe looked in on the learning and walked among the tables for an extended time with great satisfaction.

Afterwards the Rebbe went down to the first floor, where a lechayim gathering took place with the talmidim of grades 3, 4 and 5 of the branch headed by Rabbi Yechiel Yitzchak Spitzer shlit"a. Songs were sung, and the Rebbe shared words of Torah, saying that in the miracle of Purim the small children were also part of the miracle, and they too should rejoice in the miracle of Purim. He concluded with his holy blessing. The Rebbe then distributed shirayim to the rebbeim to hand out to the children. It ended at around 12:30.

In the afternoon at around 6:30, the Rebbe davened Mincha in his holy home.

In the evening, the Satmar Rebbe shlit"a officiated at the kiddushin at the chuppah of the following mechutanim:
R' Yoel son of R' Shlomo Levi – R' Avrohom Goldberger, at Kinor David hall.
R' Binyamin Niederman – R' Eliezer Meir Navi a"h, at Beis Rochel Paradise hall.

After the chuppahs, the Satmar Rebbe shlit"a comforted HaGaon Rabbi Efraim Fishel Berkowitz shlit"a, a rav and moreh tzedek, on the passing of his son a"h.

Yechidus hours were from around 8:15 until 10:45 in the evening, in the Rebbe's holy home on Ohel Street.

After the yechidus hours, at 10:45, the Rebbe davened Maariv.
