Shluchim and Anash from around Eastern Massachusetts joined together Tuesday for an evening of chassidishe warmth and unity celebrating Yud Shvat, the day the Rebbe accepted the leadership of Chabad-Lubavitch
The event, sponsored by Shaloh House Jewish Day School in Brighton, attracted 200 attendees, including many parents of the school’s students.
Rabbi Levi Garelik, the guest speaker, wove inspiring lessons together with unforgettable personal stories in his explanation of the unique significance of this great day.
Born and raised on Shlichus in Milan, Rabbi Garelik serves as the spiritual leader of the European Synagogue in Brussels and is the author of halachic works. In his remarks, he addressed current topics in medicine and halacha.
Rabbi Dan Rodkin, Executive Director of Shaloh House of Boston, introduced the speaker and said that Rabbi Garelik was one of his personal favorite speakers.
The evening’s festivities included a lavish smorgasbord including sushi and a chocolate fondue fountain. Approximately 70 children took part in a separate children’s program with multiple stations and activities and a deluxe dairy menu.
Shaloh House runs a nationally award-winning elementary school, popular preschool and after-school programs, a Sunday school, a daily synagogue, and the Jewish Russian Center of Boston. For more information, go to www.shaloh.org.
