Teshuras given at Wedding of “My Encounter” Director
In connection with 28 Sivan, we are pleased to present two Teshuros that were given out at the wedding of Rabbi Yechiel Cagen, Director of JEM’s My Encounter with the Rebbe project, to the daughter of Rabbi Betzion Friedman of Kansas City last week.
The first was a 20-minute DVD preview of the next film in the Early Years series, The Early Years, Volume IV. It covers the Rebbe and Rebbetzin’s travels ahead of the Nazis in war-torn France from June of 1940 until the couple’s arrival in the US on Chof-Ches Sivan, 1941. In it are fascinating new interviews and newly discovered documents from that period. The complete film should be out for fall/winter, 2008.

“Nine more people are alive [now] than this time last year in the 75th Precinct,” said Assistant Chief Gerald Nelson, the NYPD’s Brooklyn North borough commander. The 75th led the city in homicides last year, with 31.

Marking 50 years in Michigan this month, the group — known as Chabad Lubavitch — has grown from just one center in Detroit to 18 institutions across Michigan, several schools and a network of emissaries who have brought alive Judaism in areas without any other Jewish centers such as Novi and Commerce Township.

BROOKLYN, NY [CHI] — In time for Gimmel Tammuz, with help from the Rebbe's secretaries, a very special Yechidus (Private audience) has been recovered and carefully transcribed. In the summer of 1959 the Rebbe met with a group of directors from Hillel, the Foundation for Jewish Campus Life, and engaged in a question-and-answer session. What is the Rebbe's role in the world? Why didn't the Previous Rebbe establish Chabad headquarters in Israel, instead of New York?
