This week I have two stories for you. The first is about a carpenter who disappears, a wife who won't stop waiting, and a menorah that had been in the family for generations. The second is about Reb Zusha of Hanipol, and the night his Rebbe told him to step aside.

If you're enjoying these Chassidic stories, please take a quick moment to buy me a coffee. https://ko-fi.com/barakhullman Thank you! I deeply appreciate your support!
