Gallery #2: 5783, The Largest Pegisha Ever

Each year, the Chabad on Campus International Pegisha Shabbaton for university students brings swarms of students to Crown Heights from around the world to be in the presence of the Rebbe and soak in the inimitable atmosphere. Baruch Hashem, each year, the number of participants grows ever larger, the Pegisha’s impact expanding along with it. 

But this year, it wasn’t just incremental growth or a small increase in numbers. For this Hakhel year that emphasizes assembling as many Jewish people as possible, the Pegisha did just that. Over 1,200 students, almost 200 Shluchim & Shluchos, and 65 additional chaperones descended upon the quaint streets of Crown Heights, bringing unprecedented energy and excitement.
