Belz Community Shaken By Tragic Loss

The world is in a chaotic place. When faced with health crises, social unrest, and financial instability, it is natural to feel a sense of helplessness. Some, however, manage to rise above this sense of helplessness and fight, against all odds, to make an impact on the world. Few exemplify this trait more than Rabbi & Rebbetzin Mentzer, of Jerusalem.

Rabbi Mentzer was severely disabled for much of his life. He and his Rebbetzin were married for many years before they were blessed with children. The Rabbi was wheel-chair bound. Despite these and other challenges which would have paralyzed many, Rabbi Mentzer was extremely active in his community. He dedicated his time to helping struggling families, and many individuals would come to ask him for his guidance. Through his selflessness he was able to transcend his limitations.

Rabbi Mentzer passed away last week, leaving behind a Rebbetzin & two twin daughters. In addition to their grief, the family is now assessing the practicality of their situation. For years they have persisted only on Rabbi Mentzer’s modest disability checks. With his passing, the checks stopped coming. They are now left drowning in a sea of debt, bills, and apprehension for the future. The Mentzer daughters are of marriageable age, and the Rebbetzin is pained at her inability to provide them with assistance. It is a painful situation for all involved.

The Belzer Ruv has vouched personally for the family, with an in-depth letter on their behalf. The Rebbe’s letter blesses all those who step up to help the Mentzer family with “long life, children and abundant sustenance, [and to be] saved from all illness – with only good.”

Readers can honor Rabbi Mentzer’s memory by helping his Rebbetzin here for a limited time.

Yehudis Bukshin was only a pre-teen when she lost her mother to brain cancer. Like any child who experiences trauma that momentous, she was forced to become her own parent in many ways. Thus began her journey of fending for herself, working in kindergartens and making a happier future for herself. Grief which seemed long buried, however, has come rushing back with her recent engagement. It is a vulnerable time, a time when most rely on the guidance & support of a mother figure. Yehudis is on her own, click here to see the message she has to relay

Donations are being accepted to help Yehudis purchase essentials for a basic wedding, as well as setting up the home where she will live afterward.

Just a few days remain until the holiday of Shavuos, and the global community has begun to prepare. Many have prepared their grocery lists, planned where they will be ordering their flowers from, and even decided which seforim they will be learning. Rav Chaim Kanievsky will be dedicating some of his precious time on Shavuos to one particular cause, and recommends others do the same.

This year, Vaad HaRabbanim’s Shavuos fund will be raising money to help those who have been hit particularly hard by the coronavirus. Rav Chaim has given a bracha to all those who donate that they should merit to have nachas from their children, and success in finances. This comes at a particularly relevant time, when many are looking for ways to improve their parnassah. The Rav will also pray on the actual holiday for all those who join the cause.

Rav Binyanim Finkel released a captivating video message in which he discusses Rav Kanievsky’s blessing. “What does G-d want from us?,” he begins. (The rest of the video can be seen on the campaign page.)

The week of Shavuos, it is difficult to imagine a more relevant question.

The world lost another giant last week, with the passing of 59-year-old father of 12 Rabbi Refael Schoenfeld. Schoenfeld was famous throughout Israel for his volunteer work with ZAKA and the Cheva Kadisha. He dedicated his life to giving others a proper Jewish burial. It was with tremendous pain that his colleagues buried him after his life was taken by COVID-19.

More pained than the countless families who had benefited from Rabbi Schoenfeld’s chesed, however, was his own widow and 12 children. They have anxiously awaited his return from the hospital since last month, and have now had to accept that their father is never coming home.

An emergency fund has been started to help the Schoenfeld navigate the future. The fund asks an interesting question, which causes us to re-evaluate the tremendous value of what volunteer heroes do for free:

“We ask you to please take a moment to imagine, if Rabbi Schoenfeld had been paid for his hours volunteering. Doing difficult, painful work that most would be unable to handle. Imagine if he had been paid what he deserved and if that money had gone toward supporting his household. Imagine the amount that work was worth – an unimaginable amount – enough for his family to be comfortable for years to come! But of course he happily gave of himself and saved the reward for the world to come.

However now his children are left without the financial basis for a future. Now we must join together to repay Rabbi Schoenfeld for his tremendous impact on klal yisroel, by providing his devastated widow & children with comfort & stability. This is our way to say Thank you.”

Those who are able to say “Thank you” to Rabbi Schoenfeld by donating to help his family can do so here for a limited time.
