Offering a Toast to the Kosher Life - The Scotsman - UK

July 02nd, 2008 | Category: Jewish News

In Glasgow that same philosophy is being applied, not just at L’Chaims, but all through the community. I meet Rabbi Jacobs, who as well as owning L’Chaims is a community rabbi in Giffnock and runs the Scottish arm of a Jewish educational organisation called Lubavitch, at his Giffnock home. In accordance with Jewish law he does not shake my hand, but the warm welcome from both him and his wife Sora is genuine. Rabbi Jacobs is

on a mission to bring lapsed Scottish Jews back to their roots. Via Lubavitch, the New York-based Jewish educational initiative that is the world’s biggest Jewish outreach organisation, he hopes to offer secular Jews who have abandoned their faith a reason to return.
