Newton

So when I was about in that phase, that transition, I started in credit counseling.

There was a job in Newton, Massachusetts, Auburndale.

We were actually in Waltham at that time shortly thereafter, moved to Auburndale.

was a place called American Consumer Credit Counseling.

We'll do all of that in about two minutes, and then we'll get down to business.

So where'd you grow up, Sam? I am from Newton,

Massachusetts.

And so a fun legal, I guess, fact about me is that I did go to BC Law School.

The law school is based in Boston College's Newton campus.

So my three years of law school, I lived at home in my parents' attic, which I thought was going to be terrible, ended up being great, and walked to law school every day.

It was actually closer than my high school.

Have you always sort of been in the New England area?

Today is the anniversary of John Eliot preaching the gospel to their ancestors.

Tribal leaders from Mesquitequid, the original name of Concord, Massachusetts, Waban, Tsunskwa, Webikowit, and Squaw-Sachem gathered at Nunantum, that is Newton, Massachusetts, on October 28, 1648, and heard John Eliot preach the good news of Jesus Christ and the new birth from a text in Ezekiel chapter 37. so october twenty eighth was the day of the conversion of their leader waban from mesquitequid who established the praying indian village of natick massachusetts i had the opportunity of telling that story in the musical song on the wind the story of the first forty years of relationships between the people of mesquitequid and the first english settlers and the king philip wars that put all to the test I also had the privilege of conducting the wedding ceremony of their tribal leader on this day on the grounds of the Elliott Church by the Charles River.

So happy anniversary to our brothers and sisters.

Isn't it good to know that there will be representatives from every tribe and tongue praising the Lamb of God who paid our ransom in full and reigns as Lord of all.

Oh, nice.

Raised just outside of Boston in Newton, Massachusetts.

And I came here when I was about 17 or 18 to go to NYU and study acting.

This is...

He was 89 years old.

I knew him as Uncle Lulu from an era in my life when I often spent time in Newton, Massachusetts with my aunt, uncle, and very young cousins.

My cousins called him Uncle Lulu, so so did I. Luis lived too far from Shul to walk there on Shabbat, so he often spent Shabbat with my cousins, who lived much closer.

It was clear to me at the time how devoted he was to Shabbat in order to do this when he was already older and travel could not have been simple for him.

Zimmerman across the 50.

Goes to the 47-yard line with it before he's hauled down in there by Haystall from Newton, Massachusetts.

And we've seen the outside game of Notre Dame.

And from Mass Pike, you can go north, south, and west pretty easily.

So originally, I actually, when I moved from Hong Kong, my family actually rented in Newton for many years.

That's where we got our high school education from.

And then once we're done with high school, my family moved to Boston, Chinatown for about six years.
