Board nears OK for Menorah in Wellesley, MA

Last November, Rabbi Moshe Bleich of the Wellesley-Weston Chabad Center fought the town for the opportunity to hold a menorah-lighting ceremony outside town hall. Bleich threatened to sue, and town officials eventually agreed to allow the ceremony to take place.
With news this week that his congregation can place a menorah on town property without a controversy, Bleich said he was delighted with the town's newest policy.
"Seeing their religious display at Town Hall gives people something to smile about," he said. "Like the expression goes, all's good that ends good."
