After davening each shliach wrote his “pan,” and entered the Ohel in frezzing weather bundled up in a winter coat.

Hundreds of shluchim are cramped up in the Ohel and at about 10 AM Rabbi Moshe Kotlarsky together with Rabbi Nachman Sudak arrive and started singing “Tzoma L’cho Nafshi,” Hu Elokeinu“ and ”Uforatzto.

“Followed by reciting the Chapters of Tehilim corresponding to the years of the Previous Rebbe and the Rebbe. Afterwards Rabbi Sudak read the ”pan.”

Shluchim recited a special prayer in light of the tragic situation in Israel where the government intends to hand over parts of it to terrorists and also prayed for the success of the shluchim. A special prayer was also made for the success of the shluchim in the former Soviet Union and for the supporters of Chabad.
