Shiurim in this topic
Yosef Yitzchak Poizner is addressed in the correspondence as a devoted Chassid and active community member, recognized for his involvement in educational and outreach activities within the Jewish community in America.
The Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, wrote to Yosef Yitzchak Poizner in response to his letters, expressing gratitude for updates regarding the health of a family member and offering blessings for her complete recovery. The Rebbe commended Poizner for his upcoming trip to Louisville to deliver a speech, encouraging him to use this opportunity to further the dissemination of Torah values and the importance of a strong religious foundation, especially among the youth. The Rebbe emphasized that in America, it is impossible to maintain spiritual and even physical well-being without a solid basis in religion, highlighting the unique needs of young people who are still seeking direction in life.
The Rebbe also advised Poizner to record his speeches, noting that such documentation could benefit both himself and others. Additionally, the Rebbe suggested that Poizner work to include the Melach school in the list of institutions supported by the local Federation, possibly in collaboration with Mr. Bovis. The Rebbe concluded with encouragement, citing the teaching of his father-in-law, the previous Rebbe, that outreach efforts never return empty-handed.
