Oholei Torah’s Tzeischem L’Sholom

Just before the summer, Beis HaMedrash Oholei Torah celebrated a Gala Tzeischem L’Sholom of the most elite Tmimim in Lubavitch today, who will be going, iy”h to communities around the world spreading Torah and Yiddishkeit.

The bochurim prepared with great dedication this past year to merit being a shliach of the Rebbe. Preparations included Limud Niglah and Chassidus, Shmiras Hasedorim and Yiras Shomaim.

The Raitport Beis Hamedrash was full with the talmidim, their families, friends, members of the community and the entire Hanholas Hayeshiva.

The event began with the Rebbe’s Kapitol read by the Mashgiach Rabbi Shmaryahu Roitblatt.

On behalf of the parents we heard from Rabbi Boruch Lepkivker. Rabbi Yosef Raices, spoke as one of the first melamdim in Oholei Torah and also on behalf of the Grandparents. Oholei Torah’s Executive Director, Rabbi Yosef HaKohen Rosenfeld and Mashpia Rabbi Nachman Shapiro spoke on behalf of the Hanholas Hayeshiva.

The Talmidei who spoke include Daniel Shochet, Yosef Rivkin, Mendel Polter, Avrahom Aba Wolosow, Peretz Schapiro and Zalman Minkowitz. It was interesting to note that many of the fathers of the bochurim who spoke were talmidim in Oholei Torah.

A special mention was made in memory of Hatomim Nosson Noteh ben R’Zalman Deitsch o”h., a dear friend of many of the bochurim, who was zoche to be a shliach from the Oholei Torah Zal just two years ago.

The official list of the Talmidei Shluchim will be released in a short while, but in order to accommodate that everyone can participate in this event, the Hanholas Hayeshiva made the celebration just before the yeshiva Zman ends.

The evening was organized and chaired by Rabbi Nosson Blumes who runs the Alumni affairs of Oholei Torah.

    they are not going “to communities around the world spreading Torah and Yiddishkeit.” which implies shlichus altz lighting up jewish “communities”. this never was the inyan. rather they are altz shluchim to help the limud hatorah in “yrshivos” around the world.

    Nachman Shapiro is one big hell of a politician who LOVES lashon hara and just gossip this is the one who teaches chasidus to our children.
    And he is the one who threw out the real mechanchim and talmidey chachamim like R` Ephraim Peckarski because he doeasn`t say yechi OY VAY!!! What has lubavitch become!!!

    YOU SAY “this never was the inyan”, AND YOU SPEAK AS IF YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT. HAVE YOU READ THE LETTERS AND YECHIDUSIN TO ALL THE GROUPS, ESPECIALLY IN THE BEGINNING. THE REBBE DOESN’T WANT THEM TO BE ASKONIM, BUT VERY MUCH INVOLVED IN SPREADING TORAH IN THE COMMUNITY, THOUGH MAINLY THROUGH THEIR OWN LEARNING IN YESHIVA. BICHLAL, THE WAY THE REBBE LOOKED AT IT IS DIFFERENT THEN YOU AND ME, THE REBBE ONCE SAID THAT “WE HAVE TO CONQUER THE WORLD THROUGH LEARNING TORAH” – FROM YOUR PLACE IN ZAL.
