His criminal activities eventually led him in California's notorious Pelican Bay State Prison as an adult.During his time in prison, Pryce had a transformative experience. He discovered Judaism. He also met his wife while he was in prison. Through miracles, he got out and is living life as a Torah Jew with his family.   Aleph is an incredible organization that played a big role in Yehuda (and other prisoner's) life: https://aleph-institute.org/   ____________________________________ ✬ SPONSOR OF THIS EPISODE ✬ ____________________________________   ► ESROGSHOPPER.COM: ORDER NOW and get your ESROG/LULOV SET delivered to your door for SUCCOS!   The ultimate, convenient & personalized esrog shopping experience!   Get yours here: https://EsrogShopper.com   or call 732-447-4846

Rabbi Mitchell Silk: From a Chinese Restaurant to Hong Kong to the White House

At war's end, the piteous, battered remnants of a once proud Hungarian Jewry began making their way back to their hometowns in search of fellow survivors. The Katz family was no different. Or were they? Nine out of ten siblings from one family - an almost unheard of survival rate - escaped death to be reunited. This is their story - and what a story it was! Resourcefulness, courage and amazing acts of heroism, showing kindness to their fellow Jews, at the risk of their own lives; flight, imprisonment, deportation and escape; hope, despair, prayer and faith; these are some of the elements that combine to create a Holocaust saga unlike any you've ever heard before   Watch his "9 Lessons" Video here: https://youtu.be/iQVc3iGwzFk   Buy his book here: https://bit.ly/44e2twE   If you are reading this, please rate our podcast 5 stars :)   Lchaim!!
