Merkos L’inyone Chinuch Launches the Shlichus Academy
CROWN HEIGHTS [CHI] — The Shlichus Academy will be presenting online classes geared toward the practical side of Shlichus. The classes will feature presentations and demonstrations from experts in many fields – from fund raising and office management to hands-on cooking and party planning.
These classes will join the line-up of online classes from the Beis Medrash L’Shluchim and Shluchos Learning Center which have been connecting Shluchim and Shluchos worldwide for learning and inspiration.
The first classes will be a three part series featuring chef Jack Silberstien who will give Shluchos new ideas on how to enhance their Pesach repertoire using the classic Chabad ingredients. Each of the classes will feature quick and easy recipes using classic culinary techniques to keep their time in the kitchen to a minimum.
The classes will be available to Shluchos (and Shluchim) on Shluchos.com. The first Class will take place Thursday, March 19 – 23 Adar at 8:00 PM EDT.
The Shlichus Academy is a joint program of the Shluchim Exchange and Merkos Mentors and a project of the Kinus Hashluchim.
CHer
Can someone explain to me why Merkos (the institution with the Rebbe’s name) is offering cooking classes?! Wouldn’t the food channel do a better job anyhow?!
juliouse
for the same reason by the kinus their are clases on money managment, and how to speak, and how to run computers (i.e. merkos has the reasbonsibility of making shlcims shlichus effective, in any way that they can help)and if having decent food by the seder will atract more guests, then that falls into that category.
Food Channel for Shluchim
To CHer: “juliouse” said it all, I couldnt have said it better. Shlichus is more than just putting on tefilin and having minyanim and classes although thats the main reason the shluchim are there. Food like the media etc. are very powerful tools in bringing people together.

Can Merkos remember all the Shluchos in different time zones & please re-run them at different times? My daughter will have to stay up till the middle of the night to watch.
shluch
this is an amazing thing. Thank you for being so kind and putting in so much hard work to do this for us.
What about the rest of us?
This is a beautiful idea, but what about those of us that are not shluchim? Can we pay to view these classes?
shlucha
the videos will be posted on shluchos.com (and shluchimexchange.com) and any slucha in any time zone could watch it afterwards at any time
