Wednesday evening, Rabbi Berel Lazar, Senior Shliach and Chief Rabbi of Russia, officiated at a wedding that took place in the heart of the vast, sandy desert outside of Dubai. The young couple, alumni of Chabad mosdos in Russia, celebrated their marriage with the participation of over 600 young Jews who are currently enjoying a special trip to Dubai, organized by Yahad, Russia’s young adult community, along with a number of shluchim and rabbis from the Former Soviet Union.
For many of the guests, including the hundreds of students who were there, it was their first time seeing a Jewish wedding. The experience will no doubt leave a lasting impression on the direction that their personal lives will take.
On Thursday night, trip participants will join an event at the grand “Expo” hall in Dubai that will be attended by official government representatives of the UAE.
This trip, which is targeted to the next generation of Russian Jews, is spearheaded by “Yahad”, the largest Jewish Youth Organization in all of the FSU, which is led by Rabbi Menachem Mendel Wilansky and his dedicated team. Along with Rabbis, Shluchim, and the rest of the staff, they offer a large spectrum of classes and programs for Jewish students during the entire year.
