Following the tremendous success of Tahalucha over Pesach, organizers are now preparing for an even greater Tahalucha this Shavuos.

With over 250 shuls scheduled to be visited, and many who were away for Pesach now back in New York, even larger participation is expected this Yom Tov.

“Tahalucha is expected to reach thousands of Yidden in communities throughout New York,” said Rabbi Yosef Y. Butman, who heads the Tahalucha office at the Lubavitch Youth Organization.

In honor of Tahalucha, a special kuntres containing a collection of sichos and answers from the Rebbe has been published.

The kuntres was organized by Rabbi Yosef Goldwasser of the LYO Tahalucha office. It was prepared to encourage and inspire Anash to participate, and to assist organizers and participants with schedules, locations, maps, and other important information to help ensure a well-organized Tahalucha.

The kuntres was published l’iluy nishmas Rabbi Shmuel Menachem Mendel Butman ע”ה, Director of the Central Lubavitch Youth Organization, who dedicated many years to organizing Tahalucha with great devotion.

Organizers ask that all groups please walk together and carefully follow the provided guidelines.

Special police escorts have been arranged; everyone is asked to fully cooperate with and follow the police department’s instructions.

Organizers especially thank the NYPD for their ongoing assistance in all matters related to the different walks. 

As an indication of the great importance the Rebbe placed on Tahalucha, it is noteworthy that over the years, the Rebbe would come out as the Tahalucha departed, and in later years, also upon its return.

When we work together with achdus and proper organization, we can iy”H bring about unprecedented hatzlacha.

On Yom Tov night, downstairs in 770, memunim from the LYO Tahalucha office, led by Rabbi Shmuly Butler, will be available to answer questions and assist with any arrangements regarding shuls, speakers, or any other Tahalucha-related matters.

Tahalucha organizers extend their heartfelt thanks to Anash and all the speakers for their help and cooperation. A special yasher koach is extended to the Vaad of Tzach, Rabbi Kasriel Kastel, and Rabbi Shlomo Friedman of the Lubavitch Youth Organization.

We encourage everyone to review it carefully and familiarize themselves with all the necessary information for the upcoming Tahalucha. We hope you find inspiration in the Kuntres and participate in the Tahalucha while inspiring others to do the same. Together we can make the Tahalucha the success it deserves to be.

Wishing everyone a gut yom tov and Kabbolas HaTorah b’simcha u’bipnimiyus.
