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.
Young Shluchim attending the Tzeirei Hashluchim camp enjoyed a great trip to New Roc City.

On Rosh Chodesh it is customary that we add a number of Tefilos, one of them is we add Yaaleh Veyavo during Shmoneh Esreh. What if one forgot to say it or is unsure if he did?

Several minutes ago a photographer walked into JEM’s offices, finding JEM’s video editors still hard at work. 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.
Running parallel to the Kinus Banquet, the Tzeirei Hashluchim held their own banquet, complete with a roll-call, dancing, and entertainment in Crown Heights.
As you may have noticed throughout the evening CrownHeights.info was taking a little bit longer to load and navigate within the site, this is thanks to a crushing amount of traffic we have been serving this evening.
CrownHeights.info is the only news website with updates from the Kinus Banquet live, and readers all agree! We are working with our hosts to provide additional bandwidth and hope to have it all sorted out soon!
