Deputy Minister Makes Spiritual Trip to New York

Eli Ben-Dahan, the Israeli Deputy Minister of Religious Affairs, made a special trip to New York, during which he visited the Ohel and the Rebbe’s Room and Library. The trip was organized at the invitation of Agudas Chassidei Chabad in Israel.

The deputy minister was greeted by Rabbi Dubi Rabinovitch of JLI and Bentzi Sasson of the Merkos PR division. Together, they visited the Ohel, after which they traveled to Crown Heights and visited the Rebbe’s library and study.

At the conclusion of the trip, the minister met with Rabbi Chaim Yehudah Krinsky, along with the staff of Merkos. Rabbi Krinsky shared special stories of the Rebbe, while Rabbi Mendy Kotlarsky (son of Rabbi Moshe Kotlarsky) explained the scope of the work that Merkos and Aguch do for Jews around the world.
