Jewish communities around the world are rallying to pray for Sholom Mordechai Rubashkin on the day of his sentencing in Iowa.
Prayer and Torah study groups will be held around the world in his merit after a life sentence was recommended by the prosecution, which many Jews feel is disproportionate to say the least.
Leaders are urging for prayer for Rubashkin on Tuesday, April 27 – the eve of his sentencing, and Wednesday, April 28 and Thursday, April 29 – the days when District Judge Linda Reade will make the call.
“It coincides with ‘Pesach Sheini’ and the well known saying of the Frierdiker Rebbe, that it is never a lost cause or too late for a second chance,” an activist told COLlive.com.
“May Hashem in his ultimate compassion have complete mercy on Shalom Mordechai Halevi ben Rivka.”
All day Wednesday and Thursday vans will be leaving from 770 to the Ohel at the following times: 7:30 am, 9:30 am, 11:30 am, 1:30 pm, 3:30 pm, 5:30 pm.

Across the street at Bais Chabad of North Oak Park a bus departed a short time later for Cedar Rapids. The ruach on the bus was tremendous–active festive–as us “Oak Parkers” are awaiting a reversal of this gezera!!!
AD MOSAI!

Personally, we’ve been saying Tehillim, dedicating mitzvos, giving tzedaka, writing & calling the numbers listed, and constantly pleading with Hashem.
Yidden! We stand united. May Hashem answer our tefilos for the release of Rabbi Rubashkin from prison, and klal yisroel from golus.
It’s not just Rabbi Rubashkin sitting there in prison. It’s every one of us. It’s the Rebbe, it’s the shechina…Hashem help us.

Lunch ‘n Learn – 12:00 noon – Wednesday Pesach Sheini
class by: Mrs. Miriam Rhodes of Bat Ayin
@ Leiter Residence, 41 Ezra, Efrat
followed by Tehillim
The Alter Rebbe once said (during those years that he would say short maamarim): “Know what is above you.”1 Know that everything “above” in the supernal sefirot and partzufim (Divine emanations and configurations), all derives “from you”2; it all depends on man’s service.3
Look how appropriate his perek of Tehilim (51) is, the words are so about his situation. May the Aibishter grant him a Yeshua.
The judge has the second chance of doing it right to more on pesach sheini The theme of Pesach Sheini1 is that it is never too late. It is always possible to put things right. Even if one was tamei (ritually impure), or one was far away, and even in a case of lachem, when this (impurity etc.) was deliberate – nonetheless he can correct it. , lets do our best and may the judge do it right tommorow
8:30 PM EST (between MIncha and Ma’ariv), in Cleveland, Ohio, Tehillim for a member of the community and Sholom Rubashkin.
go learn tanya and chassidus so to bring out your Emunah,that’s obviously buried deep, deep down
Yes, as well as the geulah for a shochet i know who worked for him, and now the misnagdim in PA where he shechts are trying to rid him from his job because he pulled out his kids from their dayschool to give them lubavitch chinuch.
May this bring about the geulah for sholom mordechai – together with ALL of klal yisroel with the geulah shlaimo bimhairo v’ymeinu!!!
After all this is what pesach sheni is all about – the yidden beged of hashem, and he answered their prayes!!!
To # 5 – in reality hashem controls the world, which includes the judge! The gemara says: do not stop asking hashem for mercy even if when someone is holding a sword over your neck! Ask for mercy!!! Hashem has his ways, he is the boss, he has his ways, he can save us!!!
Miracles do happen
I know everyone is doing their part.
BUT the Judge is biased and is just getting more annoyed by it all. What will it help?
check it out!

B’H Dear Sisters, Wednesday the 28th of April, 14th Iyar, the auspicious day of Pesach Sheni, is scheduled to be the sentencing of Sholom Mordechai HaLevi ben Rivka Rubashkin. He is a son, husband, brother, father and most importantly a fellow yid. Since Australia is ahead of the northern Hemisphere by 14 hours in time we have the opportunity to invoke Hashem’s mercies and fulfil the saying: “Hakodosh Boruch Hu Makdim Refuah LeMaco” translating that Hashem will “precede the cure even before the ailment”. Our Tehillim should be the cure that precedes the sentencing. To this effect women and girls… Read more »
