25th yartzeit of the Lubavitcher Rebbe

This Shabbat (3rd Tammuz) marks the 25th yartzeit of the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson. He was a man who inspired me and left a legacy that impacted the Jewish world.
This Shabbat will be the 3rd of Tammuz, the 25th anniversary of the passing of the Rebbe—Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson, of righteous memory.
In Aramaic, an anniversary of passing is often called a hillula, which literally means “celebration.”
A celebration on the day of passing? The mystics explain that on the day a righteous person passes away, his Torah scholarship and good deeds are revealed in an elevated state, which makes this day a deeply meaningful and joyful one for all of his disciples.
And we are all disciples of the Rebbe.
If you are reading this e‑mail, your life has been influenced by the Rebbe’s teachings. If you’ve ever stepped into a Chabad center, you too have been touched by the Rebbe’s abounding love for every Jewish person. If you’ve visited our site (like so many million others), you’ve benefited from the Rebbe’s embrace of technology as a medium through which G‑d’s presence can be spread to all parts of earth.
If you think about it, the underlying factor of the Rebbe’s multifaceted leadership was his drive to transform our world into a place where G‑d will feel at home. So, let us commemorate the day of his yahrtzeit by continuing his mission, adding more mitzvahs and good deeds. Together, we can make his dream a reality.
