Shluchim Farbreng in Crown Heights

Last Sunday night as part of the hachonos for Yud Shvat, The Beis Midrash L’Shluchim of Merkos Suite 302 organized a unique farbrengen for the Rebbe’s shluchim who were visiting New York in honor of this day.

It’s years of toiling and investment of the Rebbe!”

“We were receiving emails with comments from around the world,” says Rabbi Menachem Mendel Yusewitz of BML. “One of them wrote to us, “Finally, a Chassidishe farbrengen in my mokom hashlichus!” In one encouraging moment, when Reb Shlomo forgot a particular detail in the story he was telling at the farbrengen, BML immediately received a number emails filling in names, dates, and references to fill in the blanks.
