This week's double parashah, Matot–Masei, challenges us to rethink what it means to truly see another person. We often assume that kindness requires grand gestures, yet the Torah teaches that some of life's greatest mitzvot begin with something much simpler: noticing the person everyone else overlooks. Through the lessons of Reuven and Gad, the Cities of Refuge, and a remarkable true story about a man who spent every Shabbat seeking out the one person standing alone at kiddush, we'll discover how changing our perspective can change someone else's life.

In this morning's Breakfast & a Class, we explore why Moshe Rabbeinu reordered the priorities of the Jewish people, why the accidental murderer was never left to face exile alone, and how each of us can become a source of refuge for another Jew. Sometimes the most meaningful act of chesed takes only a few minutes—but those few minutes can transform another person's Shabbat, and perhaps even their life. Join us for a practical and inspiring lesson on seeing what has been there all along.
