Hi,
Hope you’re having a great day!
… I have to share this with you!
It’s a story that didn’t make the newspapers.
But it should have!
It was February 1st. Super Bowl Sunday.
And the day of Chicago’s great blizzard.
The Polstein and Nathan families were looking forward to this day.
Their children were getting married.
The wedding was scheduled for 4:00 at the Midwest Conference Center.
In Northlake!
A 45 minute drive under the best of conditions!
Both families reached a tough decision at 10:00 a.m.
It was simply too dangerous for people to drive out there.
The wedding was canceled!
Then, at approximately 10:04?
Rabbi Yosef Polstein got a phone call from the CEO of Hebrew Theological College.
