Lately I’ve heard stories of non-chassidish things happening in such environments where teenagers are away from their parents and around not so chassidish people. Knowing this, the camp directors outright continue to ignore this.
Rabbi: What you just said is very nice and inspiring for you. This motivates you because you believe that you are a miracle of the Rebbe. However, how should I inspire myself to dedicate myself to the Rebbe’s shlichus if I am not a miracle of the Rebbe?
In a momentous display of unity and civic engagement, our community Just conducted an election that surpassed all expectations. With 1811 ballots cast, our voices rang out loud and clear, shaping the future of our neighborhood.
The Lubavitch community, renowned for its deep commitment to Jewish education, faces ongoing challenges in balancing rigorous religious learning with comprehensive secular education. This balancing act raises critical questions about how much we actually need to teach our kids these days.
As a long-time resident of Crown Heights, I’m deeply troubled by the fear-mongering tactics surfacing in our community elections. Our vibrant neighborhood deserves better than divisive campaigns.

The rising costs of Yeshiva tuition and summer camps have placed an unbearable strain on us. What was once a manageable expense has now become a daunting financial challenge. For my family, the dream of providing our children with a strong education and enriching summer experiences has turned into a cycle of debt and anxiety.
In the Lubavitch community, the words of the Rebbe carry a lot of weight. One thing he advised against was taking engagement pictures. The Rebbe believed it was important for couples to keep their relationship private and modest, especially before marriage.
In every Chabad school or Yeshiva, from high school age and sometimes even in younger grades, there are girls in the schools or boys in the Yeshivas who wait for an invitation from a classmate. Otherwise they may not have a place to go for Shabuos.
When I brought it up she burst into tears saying she didn’t want to continue but he was forcing her with threats to expose her to her parents.
“So Chabad must be preparing something big for next year – 25 Years, no?” he asked. Me, my friends, my Mashpia all looked at each other baffled and shocked. The thought of 25 Years not seeing the Rebbe didn’t cross anyone’s mind for a second.
