Dear friends,
It is with bittersweet emotions that we announce the next steps in our lives. After 18 wonderful years living and working in Northeast Philadelphia and the Isaacson community, we will be moving to Passaic New Jersey in Mid-August.
I will continue to be running RAJE but will be expanding programming to other cities as well. I will be specifically working to grow the Manhattan branch and assisting the founding of other branches as well.
My wife Rivky will continue her great passion in life, teaching. She will be the Morah of Pre-1A girls at the Yeshiva Ktana of Passaic.
The warm shul and community that we had the great honor of watching grow will be sorely missed. When we first came to the Somerton section of Philadelphia there was a small fledgling community headed by the Rebbe Shlit’a and Rabbi Shloime Isaacson. The community now boasts a Kollel, another Shul, an Eruv, a Mikvah, a Kosher Supermarket and numerous other “frills” that make this community a fast growing and lively community of well over 100 families.
Although we would like to speak personally to each and every one of you to say good bye, for some this will have to do. Please do not hesitate to reach out. The friendships and connections we made over the years we hope will not come to an end. Please continue to be in touch. Our phone numbers and emails will remain the same.
I would like to thank all of the incredible people that made us feel so welcome over the years. Ashreichem! May Hashem shower on us all much Brachah and Hatzlachah!!!
Akiva and Rivky Pollack and Family
