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

In the morning, before Shacharis, a bris took place for a newborn son of R' Yirmiyahu Mittelman, where the Rebbe served as sandek and mohel.

The Rebbe shlit"a davened Shacharis in the Heichal HaMesivta, Sniff Vayoel Moshe. Before davening, the Rebbe put tefillin on the bar mitzvah bochur, the bochur Avrohom Yoel Rubin.

After davening, the Rebbe blew shofar, and afterwards a lechayim took place with the bar mitzvah bochur in the Rebbe's private room.

At around 1:00, the Rebbe shlit"a traveled to Lindenwold, New Jersey, to the Chumash seudah with the first-grade talmidim of our holy mosdos, which took place in the hall of the magnificent building of the esteemed philanthropist R' Avrohom Brach, of Eretz Yisroel, who lives in Williamsburg, where the parents and grandfathers of the children were also present.
The children sang several nigunim and rhymes in honor of the occasion. HaGaon Rabbi Eliezer Mordechai Efraim Sofer shlit"a, rav of our holy kehilla, spoke, and the children recited the verses of Chumash Vayikra as is customary.
The Rebbe drank a lechayim, delivered words of Torah in honor of the occasion, and concluded with abundant brachos. Afterwards the Rebbe distributed a siddur to every child, and also distributed coins to the children of the older grades in our holy mosdos. It concluded at around 3:00.

After the Chumash seudah, the Rebbe shlit"a went to visit the new home of HaGaon, the rav of our kehilla shlit"a, and to affix a mezuzah. The Rebbe affixed the mezuzah, and afterwards a lechayim gathering took place. A pleasant conversation ensued, and the Rebbe warmly bestowed his holy brachos.

From there the Rebbe shlit"a went to the guest residence at the home of R' Yisroel Hartman. The Rebbe first drank a lechayim and bestowed his holy brachos upon the brothers, the distinguished R' Yisroel and R' Shmuel Hartman, among the leading supporters of our kehilla and mosdos in Lindenwold.

Afterwards, yechidus times were held at the guest residence in advance of the Days of Mercy and Favor, for the members of the Lindenwold community, who entered the Rebbe's room one by one to be remembered for salvation and mercy.

During the yechidus times, the Rebbes who came to visit the Rebbe were the Kalamayer Rebbe shlit"a, the Rachmistrivka-Lindenwold Rebbe shlit"a, and the Kosson Rebbe shlit"a. A pleasant conversation took place with each of the Rebbes shlit"a, and the Rebbe honored the Rebbes with a lechayim and bestowed his holy brachos.

After the yechidus times, at around 5:30, the Rebbe set out on the way home to his holy residence in Kiryas Joel.

Yechidus times were held from around 6:45 in the evening until 12:20 at night, at his holy residence on Ohel Court.

The Rebbe shlit"a read the tenaim at the tenaim ceremony in his holy residence for the following mechutanim:
R' Yosef Mendel Friedrich – Rabbi Yonason Binyamin Buchinger shlit"a.
Rabbi Yechezkel Shraga Stein shlit"a – R' Yoel Freund.

The Rebbe davened Mincha at around 8:30, and Maariv at around 12:20.

After Maariv, the Rebbe shlit"a went to the beis hachaim, where the Rebbe participated in the levaya of the bochur Shlomo Zalman a"h, son of R' Avrohom Mordechai Weber, one of the distinguished talmidim of our holy yeshiva, shiur 4.
