One of the highlights of the annual Kinus HaShluchim, the gala banquet, has found itself a new home. This year’s banquet will be held at Brooklyn’s spacious Pier 8, directly across from Governors Island and overlooking the New York City Skyline.
The Banquet. It is always a momentous occasion that evokes many feelings. It happens every year at the end of the Global Kinus Hashluchim. But the one that took place a few days ago at the end of the historical Kinus attended by 500 Shluchim from Europe was something special.
Maintaining a healthy work-life balance is a struggle faced by most people in the workforce. For Shluchim whose entire lives are dedicated to the Rebbe’s work, this challenge is all the more poignant.
Chabad Lubavitch of Long Island recently held a kinus for the shluchim and shluchos who staff the 32 Chabad Centers across Nassau and Suffolk Counties.
With five months to go, the Vaad HaKinus met to discuss details of the upcoming Kinus Hashluchim 5777.
The annual gathering of Shluchim to the western region of the United States took place on Shabbos Mevorchim Sivan, Parshas Bechukosai, on the stunning seven-acre campus of Chabad of Arkansas.
Shluchim to the New York and New England region held their official Regional Kinus Hashluchim this past week. The gathering took place in the beautiful new facilities of Chabad of Great Neck, NY.
Filled with inspiration and relaxation, 150 Shluchos who had gathered at the fifth Chana Seminar in Europe, arranged by Chana Margolin of Brussels, departed with revitalized energies to their homes.
Last week the executive Vaad of Kinus Hashluchim had their first meeting to start planning the 5777 Kinus that will be taking place some seven months from now.
Rimma Alexeeva is back home in San Carlos, Calif., which sits halfway between San Francisco to the north and San Jose to the south. She returned to 60-degree weather, which by Sunday is expected to reach nearly 70. It’s a far cry from last week, when she trudged through the slush and snow in New York City, wearing borrowed black boots and a white parka, necessary items for the drudge of a Northeast winter.
With Chof Beis Shvat – the day of the Rebbetzins Yohrtzeit – falling out on Monday, participants of the Kinus Hashluchos gathered at the Rebbe’s Ohel and the graveside of the Rebbetzin in Queens, praying for their families, communities and fellow Shluchos.
On Sunday, the fourth and final day of the International Kinus Hashluchos, in the hours leading up to the grand banquet, the Shluchos had breakfast together, and attended a rabbonim session and general session.
On Motzei Shabbos, the third day of the International Kinus Hashluchos, the Shluchos visited the Rebbe and Rebbetzin’s home on President Street, enjoyed a lavish Melave Malka and posed for the group portrait. Photos by Michal Weiss
Friday, the second day of the International Kinus Hashluchos, featured breakfast, workshops, chavrusa learning and a resource fair.
From the opening remarks to the Keynote, and concluding with the Roll Call, CrownHeights.info presents a video recap of the inspiring and emotional speeches made at the Kinus Hashluchos Banquet Sunday night.
Over 3,000 Chabad Shluchos and their guests are currently gathered in the Bedford-Union Armory in Crown Heights for their Gala Banquet, a highlight of their 5-day conference.
