Okay, good evening, ladies and gentlemen and welcome.

So grateful that you've joined us for this really critically important conversation,

for this amazing and opportunity that we all have,

to come together to learn and to support,

and to be educated and informed, and to be educated and informed and to be inspired.

I can't express strongly enough my gratitude to the Foreman family for their courage

in willing to share with us and appear tonight and open up their hearts and open up their experiences and make themselves

vulnerable and transparent.

And a willingness to share and to share in a public setting is really something was extraordinary.

And they're doing so for one reason.

They're doing so certainly this is an attention that they're seeking or looking to celebrate or highlight.

They're doing so in order to inspire us, to educate us, for all of us to be positioned,

to be more knowledgeable, more sensitive, more aware, more supportive, and to be so much better.

We're reading the parishes of Avram Avino. We lose him in this

Parishalachia Sarah, but when we are introduced to him, Hashem makes him several promises,

which include and culminate with Vahei brahah. And there are many interpretations. What does it mean for Avraham

to receive blessing? It can't be because it says, Váverachachah. It already says Avram, Hashem promised Avram he's going to be blessed. So what does Vahe-e-Braha mean? And the first says something phenomenal. This part is not a promise of a blessing. It is a charge and a mandate. Avram, Heye-Braha. Take your life experiences. Take all that you go through and have gone through.

Allow your journey to position you and enable you. Share it in a way that you will be a blessing

in other people's lives. And that's what we have tonight, the form and family who've agreed

and really dedicate their lives now in many ways to share in a way that

takes a lot of courage. But they are, you are a brahma. You're a brahma to the Jewish

community and the Jewish people. You're a brahma to our community and your being here with us
