Machnivka Belz Rebbe Plans Visit To Williamsburg

By Idy Perl

Next week, Parshas Beshalach, the Machnivka Belz Rebbe will arrive for a visit with his chassidim in New York and will celebrate Shabbos Shira in Williamsburg.

The visit marks the dedication of the beautifully rebuilt Beis Medrash of the Machnivka Belz chassidus in Williamsburg.

The Rebbe, shlita will honor the celebration at the home of his chossid, the philanthropist Reb Meshulam Jakabovits, who is a central pillar of the Williamsburg community and a frequent host for the Rebbe. 

The Rebbe will depart from Eretz Yisrael on Monday, Parshas Beshalach, stopping for a brief one-day visit in London to attend the wedding of an orphan within the community. The Rebbe is scheduled to arrive in New York on Wednesday, and will be in Williamsburg until Sunday of Parshas Yisro, after which he will return to Bnei Brak.
