Kadimah-Toras Moshe selects a new Rabbi

Congregation Kadimah-Toras Moshe welcomes Rabbi Azriel Blumberg as a new rabbi starting in September 2005.

Schneur Zalman of NY commenting to AD MOSAY! Still no new Shule in Boston:

I read that Rabbi Halbfinger's shul just engaged a new rabbi. Apparently a charedi type who drinks only Chalav Israel. I understand that a young Mizrachi type whom I know was rejected. This young man is a scholar, youth oriented and a budding intellectual who could do for the shul what Barry Freundel did in DC. Yet he was rejected in favor of a Charedi rabbi. I stress I am writing with VERY limited data and i have a bit of a negiah here, but I would love to hear from others who know the complete story. Boston needs some more MO rabbis besides the Chabad people there. The days when Boston had men like the Rav/Prof Twersky , Rabbis Savitsky, Lichtenstein, Tannenbaum, Rabbi Dr. A. Altman , Marvin Fox , the Bostoner Rebbe shlit'a are long over. The community needs some intellectual leaders on par with its status as the Athens of the US.
