Monday, Bahab, "B'tzeil HaKodesh" with the Satmar Rebbe shlit"a

This morning a bris took place for the newborn son of R' Pinchas Nachman Broel Gloiber, where the Rebbe served as sandek and mohel.

The Rebbe davened Shacharis in Yeshiva Gedolah Branch Divrei Yoel. Before davening, the Rebbe put tefillin on the bar mitzvah bochurim:
- The son of HaRav R' Yoel Yitzchak Stern shlit"a, dayan of the Dinov beis medrash and moreh tzedek in our kehilla in Kiryas Joel.
- The son of Rabbi Meir Tversky shlit"a (London).
- The bochur Avrohom Ber Spitzer.
- The bochur Wolf Rosenberg.

During the Torah reading, the Rebbe received Hagbah. After davening, he reviewed the daily Tehillim shiur on chapter 30, verse 1. Afterwards a lechayim took place with the bar mitzvah bochurim in his private room.

At around 7:00 the Rebbe davened Mincha in his home. The baal tefillah was R' Avrohom Schnitzler (Montreal).

After Mincha, a lechayim gathering took place in his home on the occasion of the engagement of the Rebbe's granddaughter, the kallah, daughter of the son-in-law, HaGaon Rabbi, rav of the Yismach Moshe beis medrash shlit"a, to the chasan, son of HaRav Rabbi Gavriel Yuda Spitz shlit"a, son of HaGaon, Av Beis Din of Rendik shlit"a, and son-in-law of HaGaon, Av Beis Din of Waitzen London shlit"a.
A lovely conversation developed about stories of tzaddikim and about nicknames; a kabbalas kinyan was made and joyous songs were sung. The Rebbe drank lechayim and warmly wished the chasan, the mechutanim, and the entire family.
