An Outsider Comes Home to 5000 Chabad Colleagues

by Rabbi Shmuley Boteach

Rabbi Shmuley dancing with Shluchim after the rollcall.

Tonight I attended the international Chabad emissary conference – the Kinus Hashluchim HaOlami – for the first time in sixteen years. When I was the Rebbe’s emissary at Oxford University I came annually. But with my split from Chabad over my inclusion of non-Jewish students at Oxford, I stopped.

Op-Ed: Burying Our Differences

by R.L. Arzi – Neshei Chabad Newsletter

Recently I had the z’chus to attend a bar mitzvah out-of-town in the U.S.A. Shluchim made it for their son. And while there I witnessed something so beautiful, and sadly, so rare. Let me tell you about it.

I’ll call the Shliach who made the bar mitzvah Shliach A and his friend, Shliach B. Shliach B came, of course, Shabbos to Shul to celebrate the bar mitzvah. The boy lained, and spoke, and then came the grand Kiddush. As a gesture of closeness with his buddy, Shliach A, Shliach B took L’Chaim a few times and got the whole crowd, most of whom were not frum, to singing and dancing.

After weeks of work preparing over ten unique videos which were featured throughout the Kinus Hashluchim, JEM's video editors are spending yet another night at work – this time to edit the DVD in the banquet in time for the morning.
