Munkatcher Rebbe Leaves Boro Park for Short London Visit

By Y.M. Lowy

The London Chassidish community is eagerly preparing for a very special visit from the Munkatcher Rebbe of Boro Park. The Rebbe left Boro Park this afternoon en route to London to attend the wedding of the youngest son of R’ Shmuel Shimon Glick, zt”l, the Munkatcher Dayan in London.

This visit fulfills a heartfelt promise the Rebbe made to the Choson’s father before his passing, to participate in all family simchos.

The Rebbe is expected to arrive in London early Wednesday morning in time for the Chasunah. On Thursday, Rosh Chodesh, he will daven Shacharis at the Munkatcher Shul on Keiznaw Street. Later that day, the Rebbe will return home to New York.
