Chai Elul Virtual Tour and Farbrengen

For the past 8 years a group of Chabad chassidim from Australia have traveled to the Alter Rebbe’s Ohel and other historical sites of Chabad Lubavitch in the Former Soviet Union (FSU). The trip took place during the week of Chai Elul, with the climax of the trip visiting the Alter Rebbe and Besht on Chai Elul, the auspicious day of the birth of the ‘2 great lights’.

Shabbos Slichos in Medzibuz was an unforgettable experience, one that helped prepare everyone for the upcoming Days of Awe. One participant commented, “..after davening and pouring my heart out by the Rebbeim, I came to shul on Rosh Hashana and all the tears and hard work had ‘been done’… I was ready for Succos!”

This year, due to the situation we find ourselves, our trip has been postponed until next year. We decided to take Anash on a virtual tour to the FSU: meeting the shluchim there, visiting the holy sites, reading a Pan by the Ohel, getting a little taste of what life in the FSU is like, experience the Rebbe’s shlichus there and to show some appreciation for the ‘real’ soldiers on the ground.
