There are priests who surf so why not a snowboarding Rabbi. Chaim Shapiro is right for the job. The Rabbi moved to Vancouver from New York after marrying Leah Feigelstock, now the two are set on creating “Jewish programming in the alpine resort town of Whistler, B.C.”
Rabbi Shapiro has organized après-ski prayers when a minyan was needed for someone to recite Kaddish, as well as Shabbatons, a mobile sukkah on the back of a truck, Chanukah parties and Rosh Hashanah services.
What? All we we can say is: L’Chaim, shredders.
