Nachamu Nachamu Ami

Please pray for a refuah sheleima for Rav Kanievsky, Rav Shmaryahu Yosef Chaim ben Pesha Miriam רבי שמריהו יוסף חיים בן פעשא מרים
who is in the ICU after falling ill.

The Haftarah we read this week begins with the words "Nachamu Nachamu Ami." Be comforted, be comforted my people. May we be comforted with the building of the third Beis Hamikdash bimhera beyamenu.

Below is a video containing the lyrics of Nachamu Nachamu Ami. At the end of the video, tribute is paid to Irena Sendler, who saved approximately 2500 Jewish children from death during World War II.
Ms. Sendler was in contention for the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize which was ultimately awarded to Al Gore for his work on global warming.
It is particularly appropriate to pay tribute to this heroine during the week that news circulated about her grave being defaced.
