From Rubble to Rebuilding – HeMesivta Is Moving to Canarsie

After 15 years of being a High School located in ULY Ocean Parkway, HaMesivta is moving to the Canarsie section in Brooklyn, NY.

HaMesivta has been there for hundreds of students that would not have had a chance anywhere else. It’s a school where the students actually want to be. That has always been their goal and they’ve been achieving it for 15 years.

We created a one of a kind Yeshiva says Rabbi Lieblich, Menahel of the Yeshiva. “We are the only Yeshiva that can have a very Frum and Chasidishe Bochur learn together with a Bochur struggling with basic Yidishkeit,” “When the environment is such that every Bochur feels comfortable and there is good cooperation between the Bochurim and the staff, everyone is inspired to grow,”

“The circumstances around us leaving Ocean Parkway is unfortunate,” says Rabbi Lieblich, “but with every hardship comes a blessing, we found a building in Canarsie to lease with the option to purchase that can hold our current student body and can even help us double in size.” The building has a large Shul, classrooms, a kitchen, lunchroom, game room, computer room, offices and 2 basketball courts. It even has the option of eventually opening a dormitory.

Rabbi Levi Zfasman, Shliach of the Rebbe to Canarsie is excited to have a Lubavitcher Yeshiva in his community, “We are looking forward to working together with the Bochurim in the Yeshiva to expand our work and have an even greater effect on the many Yidden living here in Canarsie”

“This will change the community, people will start moving back” says Rabbi Yosef Serebryanski, President of Anshei Sfard, the building HaMesivta is moving into. Rabbi Serebryanski is planning on investing in the infrastructure of the Jewish community by building a Mikva, putting up a Kosher Eiruv and other projects to encourage Jews to move back to Canarsie.

Boruch Hashem, with this new opportunity of moving to Canarsie we will rebuild and grow even stronger. Please help make a difference! Please help build and create a foundation so that the next 15 years can and will be even stronger than before.
