The Semicha was given to them by Rabbi Mordechai Shmuel Ashkenazy Mora D’Asro of Kfar Chabad who came from Eretz Yisrael for this occasion.

The participants included many community members as well as may family members of the Talmidim. Addressing the crowd was Rabbi Boruch Chazanow head Shliach and director of the yeshiva, Rabbi Levy Y. Schapiro Rosh yeshiva, and Rabbi Mordechai Ashkenazy who gave each of the Talmidim their Semicha certificates.

Two members of the community, Mr. Erwin Schneider, Gabbai of the Shul and Mr. Martin Wolf, also spoke and thanked the Bochurim for making the Chabad house a ‘Makom Torah’ and giving the Balei Batim the opportunity to learn with the Bochurim.

Two of the students spoke, one representing all the Talmidim and thanked the Hanhalas Hayeshiva for all their effort in making the yeshiva the success and one paid tribute to Dovid Yona Dubinsky A”H one of the Talmidim of the yeshiva who would have received his Semicha today with the rest of his Chaveirim.
