A heartfelt talk by the 6th Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Yosef Yitzchak Schneersohn OBM published this past week for the very first time, sounds as relevant as ever.
Said in Yiddish on Shabbos Parshas Vayakhel 5700 (1940), the Frierdiker Rebbe highlights the appropriate conduct of a Chassidic shul and the Gabboim running it.
It was one of the last sichos the Rebbe Rayatz said before leaving Europe to settle in the United States of America.
Published by Kehot Publication Society and Lahak, the sicha was transcribed from papers in Agudas Chassidei Chabad Library and notes written by the late 770 Rosh Yeshiva Rabbi Yitzchak Dovber Ushpal OBM.
It was edited by Rabbi Aaron Leib Raskin as part of a new edition of Sefer Hasichos 5696-5700 of the the Frierdiker Rebbe.
“Gabboim need to worry that the minyan will be such that when a Jew returns from minyan he will have what to bring with him so there will be light in his home and by his children,” the Rebbe says.
Speaking to the Gabboim of shuls in the city of Riga, he said: “It is your mission that the minyanim will be lit in a way that the vitality will penetrate in all Jews and in all their organs.

Shacharis,
although it may have been late enough for others to be davening mincha already
maariv totaly!
To #7 Which minyan?
Is that photo Shachris, Mincha or Maariv??
I can’t tell if #1 is being sarcastic or dead serious!
Either way is a perfectly realistic possibility!
hahaha! #1 you’re hilarious!!
A little diplomacy please – gentle to your “neighbor”/fellow Jew…
The most ideal course of action would be to have a stand selling moshiach pins with every minyan, to bring some home to one’s family.
you need a Dr. Don’t push your view on everyone else!
The easiest quickest way that all Gaboim can accomplish this is by making sure that every Minyan says Yechi, so that when everyone returns home they will repeat this, which they heard in Shull
Similarly the Minhag of 770 needs to be followed in all shuls to say over a word in Geulah Umoshiach after Davening so that it can repeated when one comes home to their family.
