Rabbi Asher Lopatin of Chicago is set to succeed Rabbi Avi Weiss next year at the helm of Yeshivat Chovevei Torah, the Modern Orthodox rabbinical school founded by Weiss.
The rabbi said he was ``visiting Humboldt County bringing Jews together to learn Torah, eating good food and helping us get closer to our creator.''
