Join Live at 5:30 PM ET: Thousands of bochurim will fill 770 for ‘An Hour With the Rebbe’, where they will join together to watch a video collection of sichos and niggunim. Join together with them virtually.
A record 52 Chabad yeshivos will be joining the ‘Hour with the Rebbe’ program this Wednesday on Yud Shvat.
The event, which has been taking place annually for the last ten years, will take place from 5:30 PM to 6:30 PM at 770 Eastern Parkway, where a special presentation of a video of the Rebbe will be watched.
An hour with the Rebbe began in 5773 with several hundred bochurim from six different Yeshivos. As Lubavitch around the world grew, so did the crowd at 770 grow from year to year. This year, a Hakhel year, close to 4,000 Bochurim are expected from 52 Yeshivos, a historical record.
To accommodate the crowd, the Eastern Parkway veiber shul will also be reserved for bochurim, and the windows removed to allow them to participate.
“This is an amazing program in which the Bochurim get to feel a sliver of what we had when we saw the Rebbe in 770,” one member of anash shared with us. “It’s very important that everyone should come. I was there and I had tears in my eyes to see bochurim that never saw the Rebbe. May we see the Rebbe now!”
