“Shlichus Through Fire and Water” – a short film shown at Kinus Hashluchim Gala Banquet 5786/2025
Message from Rabbi Yaakov Raskin, Director of Chabad of Jamaica:
When we were asked to be part of the Kinus presentation, before the hurricane, it was just meant to showcase our shlichus in a unique place like Jamaica.
And literally right after the Kinus crew left, we suddenly heard about a tropical storm named Melissa. By Shabbos, it was already a Category 1, and then it turned into a full-blown Category 5/6.
A week later, the Kinus team actually flew back for a day to film the damage.
Unfortunately, Instagram shut down our accounts for no reason recently, and we’re still waiting for them to fix it. So right now our voice is very limited, just when we need help the most. If people can share the link and help us rebuild, it would mean so much.
