A new, young, and vigorous source of spiritual strength has joined the family of shluchim on the Isle of Cyprus: Rabbi Mendy and Leah Raskin have been appointed as new Shluchim to the City of Nicosia.
Mendy is the son of Rabbi Shlomo Raskin, of Frankfurt, Germany, and Leah is the daughter of Rabbi Eliezer Brod, Rav of Karmei Yosef and head of the Ohr Menachem Teaching Institute.
The new Shluchim will work under the guidance of the chief rabbi and head shliach of Cyprus, Rabbi Arie Zeev Raskin, and administer the Chabad House programs in the city of Nicosia.
They will join the wide-ranging Jewish outreach activities on the island, alongside the Chabad Houses operating in the island’s main cities on the Rebbe’s shlichus with the mission of illuminating Cyprus with the light of holiness.
