245 children and 60 bochurim who spent this past summer as campers and staff members in Camp Gan Israel of Montreal joined a pre-Rosh Hashana rally over the phone on Sunday.
It was dedicated to fellow camper Yanky Hillel (Meir Yaakov Yosef ben Feigah Rochel) who is in need of an immediate and full Refuah Shleima.
Learning Director Chaim Shtern opened the rally inviting camper Yossi Dechter to recite the Rebbe’s Kapital in Tehillim. Counselor Eliyahu Raskin said Kapital 13, Yanky’s age.
The 12 Pesukim were said by Shmuel Dovid Raichik, Shua Kalmenson, Sefi Kalmenson, Yosef Rappaport and Avremel Rappaport.
Participants sang the niggun “Tzama L’cha Nafshi” and heard a Sicha of the Rebbe and a story from Head Counselor Lazer Perlstein, not before committing to say Tehillim over Rosh Hashana in Yanky’s merit.
An emotional moment was when camper Chaim Piekarsky of Bogota, Columbia, who read a letter to the Rebbe on behalf of camp.
“Through our our tefilos and hachlatos tovos surely we’ll be able to bring a speedy Refuah Shleima to to our dear friend Yanky,” he said.
Every camper was asked to take a personal hachloto and email it to [email protected] or leave a voice message at 347-946-2267, which will be written in a get well card and given to Yanky.

It wasn’t the wrong number. The organizers of the rally had to reserve a certain amount of lines to use. Once those lines it started telling people that the line is out of service/wrong number.
REFUAH SHLEIMA!!!
