As Chassidim around the world celebrate 70 years of the Rebbe‘s leadership, Rabbi Sholom Ber Schapiro presents 3 special and unique programs in the “Historic Treasures” series on COLlive.com.
“Historic Treasures” is presented by Rabbi Schapiro, Director of the Nissan Mindel Publications (NMP), exclusively for COLlive.com.
Each program shares ‘treasures’ from the archives of Rabbi Schapiro’s father in law, Rabbi Dr. Nissan Mindel OBM, a prolific writer who served as a personal secretary of the 6th and 7th Chabad Rebbes.
The program uncovers fascinating stories, rare artifacts and precious documents from the Chabad-Lubavitch movement.
PROGRAM 3: After Yud Shvat – 1951
• A letter of hiskashrus by the chassidim – declaring their connection and loyalty to the Rebbe
• A press report on the INAUGURATION OF THE REBBE – his acceptance of Chabad leadership, 1951
• This will include exhibiting the camera and movie camera used by Rabbi Mindel during the first Yud Shvat farbrengen, 1951.
• How the Ohel was built – some fascinating background facts.

Please note a mistake I made at the beginning of this program: when I said that R’ Avraham Sender wrote his letter to the Frierdiker Rebbe – it was to the Rebbe, not the Frierdiker Rebbe. The fascinating letter which we spoke about last week.
