Thank you Bais Shmuel for all the wonderful things that you do. Having everyone daven all together is wonderful..isn’t that what downstairs 770, bais Machiach, chabad headquarters,(whatever you choose to call it) where our Rebbe our leader spoke words of Torah and chazzered chassidus for thousands of hours which reached thousands of people, and touched so many souls should be used for!?
shmuly
Im in too. This sounds great. Yashar coyach Bais Shmuel, this is a long time coming. Sadly we needed a tragedy for it to happen but nevertheless it will probably be very inspiring.
Inspired
Thank you Bais Shmuel ,especially Moshe pinson for once again answering the call of and addressing the needs of the crown Heights Community!!

Yasher Koach!
THE REBBE-S SHUL
If bais Shmuel wanted to make a Shabbos Hakel they should keep the classes as they have planed them, but for dovening they should ask everyone to doven in the REBBE’S SHUL 770
Bais Shmule is full of good intentions…..I will NOT be going to doven with Bais Shmule I WILL be dovening with the REBBE’S MINYAN IN 770
David
Jeff. You say “…..isn’t that what downstairs 770, bais Machiach, should be used for!?”
You are so correct. But…have you seen how it’s used and treated now? You cannot seriously hold an event there. Also, there is simply no space or facilities (kitchens) for what is being done here at this wonderful event.
Jeff
David – 770 is a shul where thousands have united together to daven and be inspired. It has always been such a place. What better place for that to happen than our Rebbe’s shule.
To hold an “event” of unity for the community of Crown Heights is wonderful, but the money spent could definitely be used to help establish another shliach in India for example.
It seems that the bais shmuel goers want everyone to know that “they” are the ones who came up with the idea, funding it and anyone who does not attend didn’t answer their call of unity.
