NORWICH – This summer two young Chabad-Lubavitch rabbis will visit Chenango and Delaware Counties as part of a three week-long outreach project to Chenango and Deleware Counties Jews.

Rabbis Shmuel Lefkowitz and Shmuel Slonim are part of a worldwide Roving Rabbis Rabbinical student visitation program, in which some 500 young rabbis and senior rabbinical students will visit communities worldwide including Bolivia, Bosnia, Cambodia, Croatia, Fiji, Guadeloupe, Ireland, Portugal, Sri Lanka and Uruguay to name just a few.

Bringing brochures, books, Shabbat candles, mezuzahs (a ritual scroll placed on door ways), and kosher food, Lefkowitz and Slonim, will reach out to unaffiliated Jews to help them rediscover their heritage and will be spending much of their time on house-to-house visitation.
