On Sunday, 29 of Teves, the Israeli Ambassador to Washington, Mr. Danny Ayalon, and the Deputy Mayor of Jerusalem, Mr. Yigal Amedi, visited Nashville, Tennessee, to attend a special event in support of Israel. During his visit, there was a special private lunch for a group of community leadership, in the home of one of the community leaders, and the Shliach Rabbi Yitzchok Tiechtel was invited to participate and give a special blessing at the event.

The Ambassador was surprised for a moment when he saw a Chabad Shliach even in the Deep South, in a city where the Jews are just about one percent of the population. The Ambassador praised the work of Chabad, and told the people there that Chabad is an amazing group of people, and that they are there for every Jew wherever and whenever. The event was an amazing Kiddush Lubavitch.
