Ep. 22: “Yes, There Are Jews In Montana!”

In Episode 22 of Lamplighters: Stories From Chabad Emissaries On The Jewish Frontier, reporter/producer Gary Waleik presents the story of Rabbi Chaim and Rebbetzin Chavie Bruk, who in 15 short years have brought Torah Judaism to Montana. Doctors, ranchers, and young professionals from Bozeman, Missoula, Kalispell, and Billings are connecting to their heritage because of the Bruks’ efforts and many, many miles on the remote highways of the nation’s fourth-largest state. 

Lamplighters: Stories From Chabad Emissaries On The Jewish Frontier is producing a series of moving, beautifully produced, sound-rich and often surprising stories of Chabad shluchim and the people they inspire in every corner of the world.
