Pittsburgh Community Makes Annual Visit to The Rebbe Erev Gimmel Tammuz
by CrownHeights.info
A select group from Pittsburgh, PA made a whirlwind visit to the Rebbe and Crown Heights on Erev Gimmel Tammuz, marking an annual event that began last year.
The group, from the newer Greenfield community in Pittsburgh together with members of the greater Pittsburgh community, made the to the Rebbe. Men, women and children of all ages and many backgrounds joined the trip designed to live and experience the ways of the Rebbe and Chabad.
The first stop was to the Rebbe’s Ohel in Cambria Heights, Queens. After a wholesome breakfast the group continued to the Rebbe’s Room in 770, then to the Rebbe’s Library and the WLCC Broadcast Room, before culminating their visit at the Rebbe’s Home on President Street for Mincha.
Organized by Rabbis Elchonon Friedman and Eli Wilansky of Bnai Emunoh-Chabad, the group hired a charter bus to travel to New York City.
Special Thanks to Rabbi Chaim Halberstam and Rabbi Mendel Eisenbach for arranging the tours at WLCC and Rebbe’s Room.
After an inspiring day, the group returned to Pittsburgh, stopping briefly to enjoy platters of Sushi as those that traveled to the Rebbe internalized their visit.
