Lamplighters Podcast: A California Rabbi’s Mission Behind Prison Walls

In Episode 60 of Lamplighters: Stories From Chabad Emissaries On The Jewish Frontier, reporter/producer Gary Waleik presents the story of Rabbi Yochanan Friedman. In addition to running a Chabad House with his wife, Baily, in S Cruz, Friedman is spearheading a new prison program based on the teaching of the Lubavitcher Rebbe and designed to transform prisoners from a life of service rather than mere survival. 

Lamplighters: Stories From Chabad Emissaries On The Jewish Frontier is producing a series of moving, beautifully produced, sound-rich and often surprising stories of Chabad shluchim and the people they inspire in every corner of the world.
