Rabbi Krinsky Tells All in California Interview

Rabbi Yehuda Krinsky, trusted secretary of the Lubavitcher Rebbe, granted an interview to the Chabad community in California, revealing many details about his work in the Mazkirus for the first time ever.

Rabbi Krinsky came to California for two interviews: the first took place Sunday evening in North County Chabad Center in Yorba Linda with Rabbi Dovid Eliezrie, and the second the next evening with Rabbi Moshe Bryski in Agoura Hills.

He spoke about coming to Brooklyn as a young boy before his Bar Mitzvah, the unique attention the Rebbe gave him then, and his eventually becoming one of the Mazkirim.

Rabbi Krinsky told of his early years working for the Rebbe, gave intriguing insights into the Rebbetzin, and shared some remarkable stories with both communities about the Rebbe.

    Even though he is chairman of Merkos and machneh yisroel he does not need it to be mentioned. Just saying “rabbi krinski” says it all

    I wish more shluchim would take advantage and bring Rabbi Krinsky to speak to their communities. I wish he would speak to the younger generation and share his treasures of stories of the Rebbe. Today’s kids need to see and hear a real “dugma chaya” of a chossid and mazkir.

    #’s 2 & 3 I hope so.

    One story–When Rabbi Krinsky drove the Rebbe, where the Rebbe sat would tell the viewer where the Rebbe was going to go whether it was the Ohel or somewhere else. It was paterin that developed and held true over the years.
