While passing through JFK airport on Monday the Satmar Rebbe Harav Aaron Teitelbaum was greeted by the bochurim manning the Chabad at the Airport mivtzoim counter.

The Satmar Rebbe was on his way to Eretz Yisroel, where he will visit the tziyon of Rashbi in Meron and meet his chassidim.

When passing by the Chabad counter, the Satmar Rebbe stopped to speak to the bochurim. He noted that he is a grandson of the Alter Rebbe, and praised the work of Chabad at the airport, directed by Rabbi Yossi Rapp, and around the world.

Rabbi Rapp hastened to arrange a escort for the Satmar Rebbe and his entourage, and while waiting, the Satmar Rebbe entered the shul in the JFK airport.

The bochurim who were manning the desk accompanied him there, and presented him with the newly reprinted Kuntres Chof Ches Sivan, which contains a ma’amar and sichos of the Rebbe, along with the history of the Rebbe and Rebbetzin‘s escape from Nazi occupied Europe.
