Odessa Inaugurates New Orphanage and Synagogue
The Jewish community of Odessa, Ukraine had a lot to celebrate when, under the protection of a police guard and a parade route closed to traffic, it marked the concurrent dedications of a new synagogue, Torah scroll and orphanage.
Celebrants, including locals, students from the city’s Ohr Avner Chabad day school and the Jewish University of Southern Ukraine, supporters from abroad, and residents of the new orphanage, packed the streets as the sounds of music and singing filled the air.
Housing the synagogue and orphanage, the new Chesed She’B’Chesed building was officially opened by Jewish community director Yuri Rodin and Chabad-Lubavitch Rabbi Avraham Wolff, the city’s chief rabbi.
