Rabbi Aaron Teitelbaum, the Satmar Rebbe of Kiryas Joel, was on his way for a high profile visit to Argentina Monday, when he made a visit to JFK’s Chabad of the Airport directed by Rabbi Yossi Rapp.
The Satmar Rebbe was on a quick trip to inaugurate a new strictly Kosher meat plant with two famous Satmar Dayanim, Harav Moshe Friedman of Boro Park and Harav Vosner of Monsey.
Visiting the Chabad of the Airport stand in JFK, the entourage showed interest in the many activities provided there, including the recent Sukkah arranged with permits at the airport and Chanukah Mivtzoim.
Rabbi Ari Kornblitt, the Rabbi of the JFK International Synagogues met the Satmar Rebbe at the dedicated Shul in JFK, Davening Maariv and providing meals for the guests.
Rabbi Elazar Raichik of Mikvah International was also on hand and showed pictures of the many Mikvaos build throughout the world to allow Jewish women to keep this important Mitzvah. The Satmar Rebbe provided a special bracha to Rabbi Raichik saying that he should continue in his work as it says; “Ma Mikvah Metaher Yisroel”.
Completing his visit to Chabad of the Airport, the Satmar Rebbe was escorted to his gate where he was presented with a recently printed Sefer of the Rebbe’s letters with advice given for health. The Rebbe also spoke about his annual visit to Chabad of Palm Springs each Chof Daled Teves when is is spending time in the area.
