NJ Chabad reps meet with Governor Murphy
A delegation representing more than 100 rabbis from Chabad houses across New Jersey met with Governor Murphy in his satellite office in Newark last week. The governor talked about his admiration for Chabad’s work and his concern about the terror attack in Bondi Beach, Australia. Rabbi Mendy Herson thanked him for jumping into action and doing his best to ensure that the statewide Chanukah public menorah lightings would be safe for all.
Rabbi Mendy Kaminker retold the story of Chanukah and how one candle can bring much light. He described how the Chabad movement began in the tiny village of Lubavitch and now has more than 5,000 Chabad houses around the world, bringing joy, light and Jewish pride to the Jewish people. Miles Berger presented the governor with a kippah with the state seal of New Jersey.
