Moving circuit closed in Mumbai: shaliach's son named after shaliach who was murdered



Today (Sunday) a special circuit was closed in Mumbai, India: The son of Rabbi Israel Kozlowski, the Rebbe's emissary in Mumbai, was named Gavriel Noah – by the name of Rabbi Gavriel Noach Holzberg HYD, the Rebbe's emissary in Mumbai, who was killed al Kiddush Hashem a few years ago .
The exciting Bris Milah held at Chabad in Mumbai, attended by family of the shluchim in the town, along with their associates and the Rebbe's emissaries from the Far East.
Rabbi Kozlowski and his wife, who are dedicated to the Mumbai Chabad house throughout the year, went on a mission two years ago and they took the place of the couple, the kedoshim Rabbi Gavriel-Noah and his wife Rivka Holtzberg HYD killed in a brutal terrorist attack.
The blessings were said excitedly by father in law of the shaliach – grandfather of the baby - Rabbi Meir David Bergman, a member of the Beit Din Kashrut Committee. Amida Lebrachos was by the brother in law of the shaliach, Rabbi Matityahu Bergman.
In an interview in the past for COL, Rabbi Kozlovsky told of the sense of mission in Mumbai: "This is not an easy place, in fact it was long before a shaliach arrived here. If G-d chooses a person to do a certain mission, G-d gives him the power for that. It could be that you yourself really do not have the strength for it, but G-d says, 'I give you this power'. And this applies to all the emissaries around the world.
"Once a person is 'attached upwards', all the tests do not exist. Rabbi Hecht one year asked the Rebbe for a brocha, that the Rebbe get him out of the difficult economic condition. The Rebbe smiled and said 'Get you out? Pick you up.' When a person starts to think that his success is the result of his 'brain', there is a problem. We are like the hands and legs of the Rebbe."
