Yeshiva Gedolah Lubavitch of Monsey has hired Crown Heights-born Rabbi Menachem Mendel Landa as the Mashpia of the new Shiur Aleph.
After serving the Chabad Mesivta in Monsey for the last decade, he will be joining the Beis Medrash/Zal with the Rosh Yeshiva Rabbi Dovid Weber.
“Rabbi Landa is devoted to bochurim and has a unique way of teaching and explaining chassidus,” Rabbi Weber said.
The Yeshiva is located in central Monsey with a dormitory for out of towners wishing to learn in a more intimate environment.
As registration opens, Rabbi Weber told COLlive.com that a donor from New York has given a scholarship grant that will lower the tuition costs in half for those enrolling in the new Shiur Aleph.
“He asked to remain anonymous and we are deeply thankful for his generosity as many parents struggle to pay for education in this economy,” Rabbi Weber said. “And we hope to continue this in future years.”
Monsey, one of the largest Jewish communities in America, is arguably also the fastest growing Lubavitcher community. A beautiful suburban town just about an hour drive from Crown Heights, Monsey is already host to many Chabad Mosdos, amongst them, a Mesivta, Night Kolel and several Shuls.
“The goal of this Yeshiva is to be a beacon of Torah and chassidus for the whole city and take an extra interest in the Rebbe’s mission,” said Rabbi Simcha Werner, Director of Chabad of Monsey.
