- Say L’Chaim! Have grape juice and special cups ready
- Have a treat for this special day
- Make a Hachlata as a birthday gift to the Rebbe
- Think of someone to whom you will give Shmura Matza
- Watch a video of the Rebbe [Here’s an idea: https://youtu.be/WnhMntRHqpo]

Testimonials from the Yud Tes Kislev ‘Morah Raizel’s Reach’ Campaign:
Farbrengen Upgrade
Hoch Family ~ Melbourne, Australia
We often have some kind of Farbrengen or special meal for Chassidishe Yomim Tovim. The “Farbrengen @ Home” initiative took our tradition to a whole new level! It adds structure and novelty. Now our children experience these days in an even more special way.
As a mother, because of Farbrengen @ Home I take even greater care in the preparation of the table. Our kids get involved and they love the creativity! It is both enjoyable and full of meaningful Toichen.
We look forward to the next one. May we join the Seuda of Moshiach, together as one big family!
Actionable Inspiration
Wagshul Family ~ Los Angeles, CA
Our kids come home and the first thing they see is that we set the Shabbos table in middle of the week! The ambiance is festive: nice tablecloth, dishes, cups, chargers under plates, candles, and a picture of the Rebbe at each setting.
Everyone shares how they feel connected to the Rebbe… We explain how “Rebbe” is Rosh Bnei Yisroel, the head of the Jewish people… We are very inspired to take on a Hachlata: Mivtzoim with a neighbor, learn Torah from the Rebbe, Give tzedaka to a Shliach…
