Shluchim Office Thanks Supporters

Dear Friends,

We have no words that can adequately describe our deep appreciation to all Shluchim, Chassidim and Friends who joined together, with complete Achdus, to support and partner in the annual Together For Shluchim fundraising campaign. This is not only vital for the success of The Shluchim Office’s ongoing projects, but is a source of inspiration and encouragement to us all.

It was heartwarming to see such a great display of Achdus HaChassidim! During the 36 hours of the campaign there was an amazing outpouring of support from Shluchim and Anash worldwide. Volunteers were calling and fundraising at all hours of the day and night; thousands of people stepped forward and donated, and encouraged their friends to give as well.

So many individuals generously gave much beyond their ability, and many key staff and volunteers continued calling long beyond the point of exhaustion. Local Crown Heights residents, businesses, and mosdos went above and beyond to help make this campaign a success.

We are humbled and gratified by your generosity that will enable The Shluchim Office to continue fulfilling the Rebbe’s holy mandate.

The Shluchim Office still needs your support, and we encourage you to join us and make a contribution at www.TogetherForShluchim.com.

In the merit of supporting The Shluchim Office which the Rebbe himself established thirty years ago, may we all see the fulfillment of the Rebbe’s blessings that followed his call for its establishment, during the farbrengen held at the Kinus Hashluchim in 5747:

“Fulfilling the above will, firstly, grant success in the fulfillment of the shlichus, a much greater degree of success than envisioned. Moreover, this will also result in success with regard to one’s personal affairs as well, i.e., with regard to children, health and sustenance—that they all be in an abundant manner: healthy children and grandchildren, making good matches for one’s children, and being blessed with all possible manners of blessings.”

“…און דורך דעם וואס מ’וועט טאן בזה באופן האמור – וועט מען צום אלעם ערשטן מצליח זיין אין קיום השליחות, און מיט הצלחה למעלה מן המשוער: און דערצו וועט מען אויך האבן הצלחה אין די אייגענע ענינים – בבני חיי ומזוני רויחי ובכולם רויחי – געזונטע קינדער, און געזונטע אייניקלעך, און מאכן גוטע שידוכים, און זיין געבענטשט מיט אלע ברכות…”

(משיחת ר”ח כסלו תשמ”ז – ע”ד התייסדות משרד השלוחים)

In the merit of your kindness and Tzedaka given during the campaign, may the Shluchim Office director Rabbi Gedalya ben Bat-Sheva Shemtov experience a complete recovery and return to his post in full strength!

We have no doubt that this great display of Achdus and Ahavas Chassidim is the ultimate hachana for Gimmel Tammuz. In the Rebbe’s words regarding Yud Shvat, may this upcoming Gimmel Tammuz no longer be a yartzeit but instead a Hilulah with the Rebbe himself, as we all reunite with our Rebbe with the coming of Moshiach Now!

Thank you,

Interim Vaad of The Shluchim Office
