“Hello, my name is Jacques Lipchitz, do you know who I am?”
“Hello, my name is Rabbi Cunin, do you know who I am?”
Lipchitz started laughing and told him that the Rebbe sent him to speak to him about doing something for him.
Lipchitz related this to Rabbi Cunin:
The Rebbe told me: “Every place where you go and there are Lubavitch emissaries, you should call them on the phone and say you are Jacques Lipchitz and you would like to help them.”
“The Rebbe said, ‘They [the emissaries] will not know who you are. So tell them that they should talk to their supporters, their supporters will know who you are.’”
Cunin who had not heard of Lipchitz, turned to one of the supporters of Chabad-Lubavitch in California, Alan Lazaroff, who arranged a parlor meeting in his home.
