Recently elected Prime Minister Andrew Holness of Jamaica met last week with Chabad-Lubavitch representatives in advance of the Passover holiday.

Holness hosted Rabbi Yakov Raskin, director of Chabad of Montego Bay in Jamaica; Raskin’s father-in-law, Rabbi Zushe Wilhelm, principal of Oholei Torah Mesivta High School in Brooklyn, N.Y.; and community member Michael Mintz.

“Jamaica is a diverse country,” noted Holness, who took office on March 3. “With the multiplicity of religion, cultures and races here in Jamaica, we can truly say”—citing the Jamaican national motto—“out of many, we are one.”
