Gimel Tamuz: the Individual Connection with the Rebbe
By Rabbi Michoel Seligson for CrownHeights.info

On this auspicious day of Gimmel Tammuz, a person might think; of what significance am I in the Rebbe’s “grand plan”? The Rebbe is investing in the potential of the Jewish nation as a whole to bring the Geula. As an individual person how do I fit into the picture? How much do I count?
Some stories that I have heard from distinguished people follow. These stories teach us that the Rebbe is connected with every Yid on an individual and personal level.

Excerpted from Rabbi Yossy Gordon's weekly Torah Thought email
Tonight is Gimmel Tammuz, marking thirteen years since the passing of the Rebbe in 1994. Two weeks after the Previous Rebbe, Rabbi Yosef Yitzchok Schneersohn (1880-1950) passed away, my grandfather Reb Yochanan Gordon was in the synagogue at 770 Eastern Parkway, which houses Lubavitch World Headquarters. This was yet before the Rebbe had openly accepted the mantle of leadership. It was a mere two weeks after the Previous Rebbe's passing!
My Bubbe Zeesy had been seriously ill and the doctors didn't give her situation much hope. The Rebbe had already heard that she was sick when he met my zayde. “Reb Yochanon, I heard that your wife is not feeling well.” Zayde confirmed his suspicion. Then the Rebbe said, “Why don't you ask my father-in-law what to do?” Zayde said he had gone to the Previous Rebbe's resting place but did not know where to turn for guidance. The Rebbe told him, “Ask, ask. My father-in-law will surely find a way to answer you.”

Since Shavuos, Anash communities across the world have been exposed to a new educational brochure. A group of concerned Chassidim has seen the need to raise the level of Lubavitch community awareness of proper conduct during Davening and have published a new color brochure and had it circulated amongst Lubavitch communities worldwide.
The brochure titled “ומקדשי תיראו” (“You shall revere my Sanctuary”) addresses basic yet fundamental Hanhagos and Halachos concerning proper conduct in Shul. Aimed at a Lubavitch audience, the brochure describes the vital need for proper decorum in Shul during prayer, citing brief but pointed statements from Gemara, Shulchan Aruch, and the often passionate words of the Rebbes of Lubavitch.
