On Yud Shevat, 5725 (1965), fifteen years after the Frierdiker Rebbe’s passing, the Rebbe gave a historic talk on the critical importance that Chassidim document the stories of their generation, in order for the younger generation to learn from them, and to pass them on to future generations.
It has been sixteen years since Gimmel Tammuz. We each seek to be inspired by learning the stories of our Rebbe. And those who don’t have stories of their own, must rely on the older generation.
The My Encounter with the Rebbe oral history project fulfills this request of the Rebbe’s from over 45 years ago. Its leaders do their best to make sure the events are documented for future generations. And they have only just begun.
Help JEM preserve these precious encounters by giving toward the project (in honor of Gimmel Tammuz, every dollar given will be doubled by a generous donor). Visit 1000encounters.com

JEM NEED TO HAVE THE SAME RESPECT AND INCLUSIVENESS FOR EACH AND EVERY CHOSID, OR EVEN THOSE WHO DID NOT ALIGN THEMSELVES AS CHASSIDIM OF THE REBBE, IN RECORDING THEIR SPECIAL OR UNIQUE MOMENT WITH THE REBBE. THEY ARE ALL SPECIAL TO THE REBBE, AS WE KNOW HE CALLED ALL HIS DIAMONDS…
PERHAPS CREATE JEM CAN ENABLE EVERYONE WITH SUCH MOMENTS TO UPLOAD THEIR STORY….AS LONG AS THEY INSPIRE…
Jem is definitely a worthy cause!
