The long-running saga over the fate of the East Nassau Hebrew Congregation in Syosset seems now to be at a crossroads.

A controversial plan to sell the synagogue to a Korean church deserves judicial scrutiny, according to State Attorney General Andrew Cuomo.

In papers filed before State Supreme Court Justice Thomas Phelan in Mineola, Assistant Attorney General Dorothy Nese asked the judge to conduct a full evidentiary hearing if necessary before deciding whether to permit the sale.

High Tech Gemara Learning at Darchai Menachem

CROWN HEIGHTS [CHI] — Eleven boys sit poised in a brightly-painted third floor classroom at Yeshiva Darchai Menachem, in the Crown Heights section of Brooklyn, New York. The atmosphere in the room has the feeling of a quiz show. Their teacher, Rabbi Shua Samuels, barely has a chance to get his questions out, before hands wave eagerly in the air, 11 preteen boys desperate to demonstrate their knowledge.

For the last few weeks, hundreds of fellow Tzeirey Hashluchim and Chayolim in T“H have united in honor of HaYeled Hashliach Levi Yitzchak Wolowik A”H.

A precious Chayol in Tzivos Hashem, he was the epitome of Ahavas Yisroel, and true soldier. To honor his memory, a Sefer Torah is being written exclusively by Children in the Army of Hashem from all over the world through a global Learn-A-Thon. They are learning Tanya B”P and getting Friends and Family to sponsor them for every line they learn.

Anash and Tmimim escorting Rabbi Raskin on his way to the Rebbe

Tuesday marked the fifth anniversary of the passing Rabbi Yehuda Leib Raskin, Chabad emissary to Morocco for more than 44 years.

Born in Russia in 1933, Raskin escaped with his family to Kazakhstan during World War II. There he met Rabbi Schneerson’s father, Rabbi Levi Yitzchak Schneerson, right after his release from prison and exile. The young Raskin often assisted the elder Schneerson with his religious and physical needs.
