And the Ruach HaKodesh declares: "So shall they multiply and so shall they spread"

This morning the "Mezuzah Affixing and L'chaim Celebration" took place for the new Riesler Building of the Rochel Building in our holy mosdos in Williamsburg, which has opened b'sha'ah tovah and entered into use after long years of aggravation. The event was graced by the presence of the Satmar Rebbe shlit"a.

The Rebbe shlit"a affixed the mezuzah, and afterwards made the l'chaim. The Rebbe shlit"a wished the public well, and in particular the distinguished philanthropist R' Fishel Riesler. Speaking were HaGaon Rabbi, the Av Beis Din and Rosh Yeshiva of Williamsburg shlit"a, and the director, R' Binyamin Lichtenstein shlit"a. The Rebbe shlit"a delivered holy words. During the remarks, the Rebbe shlit"a spoke in praise of the building's benefactor, the distinguished philanthropist R' Meir Zelig Riesler z"l, a leader of our holy kehilla, and brought out the great benefit to the neshama when a building that took so much toil is inaugurated, and the merit that so many girls are being educated in its halls. The Rebbe shlit"a concluded with very warm blessings to the family, who walk in his ways and whose hands are still outstretched to raise the glory of our holy kehilla.

Afterwards the Rebbe shlit"a toured the building, looking over all the floors, the dining halls and the classrooms. On leaving, the Rebbe shlit"a warmly wished the esteemed Mrs. Riesler well and expressed that "this is the most beautiful honor that can be done for the benefit of the neshama."

May the Creator of the world grant success to this building in full
