As the Yeshiva year comes to a close, Bochurim of Yeshivas Lubavitch of Manchester organized a Dinner for their Mekurovim in the Beis Menachem Community Center.

The next speaker was Rabbi Daniel Walker, a graduate of the Yeshiva who serves as the Shliach and Rov of the Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation. He spoke about the Rosh Yeshiva Rabbi Akiva Cohen and the positive atmosphere which helps the Bochurim in their life.
He went on to describe the enormous effect that the Bochurim have on the city, and on his Baale-Batim who are visited by the Bochurim on Mivtzoim.
He thanked Rabbi Cohen for helping him as a Bochur, and concluded "Thanks to you, me and my family are Lubavitchers and Shluchim!"
