    to DallasJew:

    Different shliach. Rabbi Lipszyc is on the ocean and he is usually referred to as Chabad of Ft Lauderdale, and Rabbi Lieberman is more inland and is known as Chabad of Inverarry.

    Rabbi Aron Leiberman is the Rabbi of the Synagogue of Inverarry-Chabad. He was one of the first shluchim under Rabbi A.Korf to be assigned to Broward County and is on the board of the ORB, a Kashrus supervising agency.Rabbi Moshe Meir Lipszyc is the Rabbi of the Ft. Lauderdale Chabad near Galt Ocean Dr. which is located directly across from the ocean. There are at least eleven cities in Broward county (of which Ft. lauderdale is one) that have Chabad shluchim and their numbers keep growing keyn yirbu!!!

    To all readers:

    I am very sorry for the mix up with institution names.

    The article has been reprinted from COL and this is how they wrote it.

    As some of the comments clarified that is the case, its two Shluchim from two differnet areas.
