TYH Presents: Refuah Shelema | Afiko.man

Join Afikoman and Afikoman Jr. as they visit Sharei Tzedek Hospital in Jerusalem to spread happiness and cheer, amongst those who may need it most.

Simcha is the ultimate healer. When a person chooses joy, even in the face of pain or uncertainty, it unlocks something deep within. The body begins to respond, the heart starts to soften, and healing becomes possible. Studies show that patients who cultivate happiness and positivity experience better outcomes. But beyond science, we know it in our souls: joy brings light where there was darkness.

When you bring simcha to someone else, whether through a smile, a kind word, a dance, or a song, you are giving them more than a moment of happiness. You are offering them a lifeline. Simcha lifts the spirit, strengthens the body, and opens the gates to spiritual healing and connection. Joy is not just an emotion. It is medicine for the one who holds it and for the one who shares it.

Niggun HaPilpul - Shira ft. S. Z. Horowitz & MendyHBand

Experience the beauty of "Niggun HaPilpul", a soul-stirring Chabad classic. This moving melody is uniquely based on the traditional Jewish style of questions and answers (קשיא and תירוץ).

“The niggun is built in a question-answer format. What the first refrain demands and questions, the following refrain answers, justifies and settles. The following refrains climb and ascend, dismantle and build, challenge and respond, in a similar pattern to that of a pilpul in Gemara.” (Adapted from Sefer Haniggunim)

The niggun is a sacred song within the Chassidic community of the Lubavitcher Rebbe. Performed by the acclaimed Shira Choir, conducted by Yoely Horowitz, alongside talented soloist Shloma Zalmen Horowitz with the music artfully arranged by Mendy Hershkowitz. Recorded live at a Hachnosas Sefer Torah celebration, this video captures the spirit and passion of this beloved song.

HIGHLIGHTS: Bonai Chavivei 2025

Bonai Chavivai is a program adapted from the world-famous Vhaarev Na program, geared towards boys approaching their bar mitzvah, to encourage them to learn and know a masechta in honor of their bar mitzvah.

Through this program, boys who are just beginning to learn gemara develop an appreciation for the importance of chazara and knowing a masechta “in the bones.” With the haskama of their rebbi and menahel, they choose a masechta suitable for them, and learn it during their free time, guided and motivated by the Bonai Chavivai staff of handpicked rebbeim. The goal is not to finish, but to know, to have the masechta “go through you, not just to go through the masechta.”

Beginning just a few years ago with a handful of boys in Monsey, Bonai Chavivai has since spread to Lakewood, Brooklyn, Far Rockaway, Passaic, Baltimore, Florida and Los Angeles. The success of Bonai Chaviai has been its own advertisement, leading to exponential growth year after year.

Ayay Shabbos - Yakov Shlomo Gross - Neimes Choir

One winter day at Edgware Studios, Isaac Paneth sat down at the piano, as he often does, playing sweet melodies. His Moreh Derech, Reb Yaakov Yosef Spitzer Shlit”a, began singing along and, in that spontaneous moment, composed the beautiful melody that would become Ayay Shabbos. Gershy was immediately struck by its heartfelt tune, reminding him of his Rebbe Z”L’s Negunim and the unforgettable Friday nights at the Pitsburger Rebbe’s Z”L Tish. Inspired, they knew they had to share the song with the world.

Gershy crafted the arrangements with Moishy Kahana from Bnei Beraq, and Isaac brought in the Neimes Choir to bring the melody to life. During one of the sessions, the talented Reb Yaakov Shlomo Gross unexpectedly dropped by, adding his soulful touch and signature voice. Also featured is child soloist Chezki Markowitz (not seen in the video), from the Shevach Boys Choir of Skver.

The Nigun “Ayay Shabbos,” composed by Reb Yaakov Yosef Spitzer Shlit”a, is based on the Pre-Kiddush Friday Night Zemiros Shabbos Koidesh Adoin Hashuloim (אדון השלום).

Let this melody touch your soul and bring you back to timeless moments of inspiration and joy.

Inspiring Stories from Chabad's CTeens

My Mom Was Scared.... I'm Proud! - My parents were afraid for me to go to work with a kippah. I took on my rabbi’s challenge to share my Judaism with others.
 

 I Stood Up to Campus Antisemites


One Mitzvah, Endless Impact: Abi & Ben’s Story - Abi’s journey began at CKids Gan Israel, where he embraced tefillin and started a stand at his local grocery store—helping over 60 people wrap, including a man who finally had his Bar Mitzvah! Ben, the only Jewish teen in his grade in Alabama, met Abi at the CTeen Shabbaton. Inspired by their friendship and a powerful farbrengen, he committed to wearing tefillin, kippah, and tzitzit—sparking a ripple effect that reached his father and beyond. One mitzvah. One friendship. A lifetime of impact.
