Yeshiva Lerabonus Pretoria Sends Bochurim to Rwanda

2 Bochurim from The Yeshivah Lerabonus Pretoria, Mendel Sudak and Yanky Vogel, students from London, traveled to Rwanda for Shavuos.

This forms part of the Yeshivah’s hafotza program, created to service various outlying communities within the African continent.

The Rabbinical student cames to assist with Shavuos holiday programming in Rwanda.

Rwanda is still in a rebuilding process; only recently recovering from the infamous genocide in 1994 at the height of the Rwandan civil war. The state of Israel have just established an embassy in the capital.

Among the guests, were Jewish backpackers and travelers who were delighted to find a Shavuos meal right in the heart of Kigali. Rwanda is almost entirely devoid of Jews, but nevertheless, the meals included people from Canada, Israel and the States.
