Key Lubavitch officials came Sunday to wish Mazal Tov to Rabbi Yitzchok Frankfurter and his wife Rechy Frankfurter, writer and Editor-in-Chief of Mishpacha magazine respectively, for their daughter’s wedding.
The chosson is the son of Rabbi Mordechai Leib Weiss, the brother-in-law of the current Munkacther Rebbe, Rabbi Moshe Leib Rabinovich.
Attending the simcha in Ateres Chaya hall in Boro Park was Rabbi Yehuda Krinsky, Chairman of Merkos L’Inyonei Chinuch – the organization over seeing Chabad Shluchim worldwide.
Krinsky, who gave Frankfurter a revealing interview about his years as the Rebbe’s secretary, arrived with his son-in-law Rabbi Yossi Friedman, Director of Chabad’s publishing house Kehot.
They were joined by Rabbi Dovid Eliezrie, the Shliach in Yorba Linda, California, who is active with press relations and facilitated that interview.
Also present were Rabbi Avraham Berkowitz, Director of Chabad Mumbai Relief Fund, and his brother Yirmi Berkowitz of Lubavitch.com.
From the Munkatcher side attended Rabbi Shmuel Butman, Director of Lubavitch Youth Organization in New York.
Rabbi Wiess regularly speaks at the International Siyum HaRambam held annually in Crown Heights.
The Lubavitchers exchanged greetings with the Munkatcher Rebbe and Eli Paley, CEO of Mishpacha Magazine.
Rabbi Yossi Goldstein of the Tmimim Boys Choir entertained.
Not all is the same. Mishpacha is making great strides in bringing Klal Yisroel together. Ashrei Chelkom.
I would also to point out that Rabbi Frankfurter is not merely a writer. He is cited on the masthead as the Torah Editor of the publication.
nu. after the photo ops. all is the same here on earth.
Its beautiful to see 3 generations of Chabad leaders chating together. Rabbi K, Rabbi F & Rabbi B
Mishpacha is taking overt he world they are replacing Aguda Torah Mesorah and all the otehrs as the central force
he is a great singer!i suggest his new cd to everyone who is inro good music!
I know OZFELT would have liked this kind of thing.
The article describes the Choson as the grandson of the Munkatcher Rebbe. He is the nephew,the son of the Munkatcher’s brother-in-law,R’ Mordechai Leib Weiss. The Munkatcher has two other brother-in-laws that are Chabadniks.One is R’ Yosef Segal-Rosh Hakolell Tzemach Tzedek in Yerushalaim, and R’ Eisenbach from Bnei Brak. Other Lubavitcher’s at the Chasuna were R’ Meir Zeints from Brazil and Shloime Drimmer from Crown Heights,relatives to the Baalei Simcha.
kol hakavod to the great rabbi kerinsky although he does a great job he should further the secular education and teach proper midos if we want our kids to find a shiduch he is capable to change crown heights and unify all he is my role model forever!!!!!!and his wife is a true eishes chayil
its so nice to see the admirable rabbi kerinsky together with those chassidim i know him for years hes very special and charosmatic he looks soooooo holy
Kudos to Rabbi Frankfurter. He stuck his neck out for Lubavitch in a Lithuaian magazine. He therfore was well deserving of this honor.
To the Frankfurter couple: mazal tov and may you have nachas from them
Great photographer, so clear and definate
Different tribes but one nation.
Borchainu Ovinu Kulonu Keechod!
It’s so nice to see achdus
The writer Frankfurter is indeed influential but his wife is the editor and chief of the magazine and they have managed bridge gaps in an unprecedented manner. I think R Eliezry has a lot to do with it.
When the Munkatcher Rebbe used to learn in the Telzer Yeshiva – he used to study Tanya under Rabbi Lipe Shapiro.
golus mentality grow up
Rabbi Chananya Yosef Eisenbach Brother of the Mashpia of Montreal, is the Shvoger of the Munkatcher
lets see a picture of yudel dancing with shmule buttman
Thats what I call Achdus; Really beautiful pics to see. .
May we all be able to join in each others simchas, regardless of ”background differences” Its sucha pleasant change from all the sadness and bitterness lately read here
might i ask why this is such a big deal that lubavitchers came?
Sharpest looking man in Lubavitch!
