At 8:00, a Farbrengen will be held as per the Rebbe’s request at the end of the Shivah of the Rebbetzin that “It is customary to conduct a chassidishe farbrengen for the elevation of the neshama. It should be done in a beautiful manner and with many participants – as many as possible.”
The Farbrengen will be addressed by Rabbi Shais Taub, in house scholar of Chabad of the Five Town’s and Rabbi Yisroel Shmotkin, head shliach in Milwaukee and other Shluchim and Mashpi’im with the Farbrengen expected to go into the wee hours of the morning.

The entire sicha “Kuntres B’cha Yivarech Yisroel” has been translated for the first time and published for the English-speaking community.
