Description
Rabbi Mendy & Mazal Sternbach: Lagos, Nigeria - A small Jewish community in an African city of 20 million"We had a meeting, and then we decided, "Okay, let's do that. Let's go for a year to Nigeria." My parents were not so happy about that … then. I mean, let's say you just Google "Nigeria." I'm guessing that the first few things that you will find are not something that parents want their daughter to go there. It doesn't sound so amazing. But then they had a talk with the shluchim, and they realized that we don't have terrorists walking around, and we’re pretty safe. And they were more relaxed." -- Rebbetzin Mazal Sternbach"They see me with a yarmulke. They walk over to me and they say, "You're a Jew, you're from the Bible, you're Moses." They tell us "You're the chosen people."
