In Episode 67 of Lamplighters: Stories From Chabad Emissaries On The Jewish Frontier, reporter/producer Gary Waleik presents the story of Rabbi Yaakov and Rebbetzin Mushkee Raskin, Chabad emissaries to the bustling island of Jamaica.

In just 12 years, the Raskins have built a thriving Jewish community comprised of locals and tourists. A deadly hurricane threatened to erase all their hard work but, instead, it spurred the Raskins to reach more islanders with physical and spiritual support.

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.
