In the spirit of Hakhel, the Shluchim to Yeshiva Gedolah in Australia embarked on an extraordinary endeavor. Staying true to the Rebbe’s charge to “conquer Australia through learning Torah,” they conceived a remarkable project – a Sefer of Chiddushim and articles on Torah topics. What sets this project apart is that it is a collaborative effort, bringing together contributions from members of diverse Frum communities across Australia.
From the bustling streets of Sydney to the vibrant neighborhoods of Melbourne, Dayanim from three Batei Din, Rabbonim, Roshei Kollel, Roshei Yeshivos, Shluchim, Avreichim, and Bochurim all enthusiastically joined forces to create this unique compendium of Torah wisdom.
The project also pays tribute to the rich heritage of Australian Jewry by including articles from previous Rabbonim of communities who have since passed away, ensuring that their insights continue to inspire.
The response from the community was nothing short of overwhelming and contributions poured in from all corners of the country, exceeding expectations and causing the project to grow beyond its original scope. Despite the challenges, the unwavering dedication of the Chavrei Hama’areches ensured that this labor of love was diligently crafted.
Now, after countless hours of dedication and collaboration, this remarkable compilation of Torah wisdom is finally in its final stages of preparation. With great anticipation and gratitude, it is set to be delivered to Yeshiva Gedolah, B’ezras Hashem, this Friday.
This was just one of the many projects the YG Shluchim, the original Shluchim embarked upon this year. Over the past 45 Kevutzos, the Shluchim have never ceased to inspire the local communities with their tireless dedication to learning and to the Rebbe’s causes.
In addition to spending the whole day learning amongst themselves and with Bochurim from the Yeshiva Gedolah and a number of local Jewish Day Schools as well the shluchim also spearhead Mivtzoim activities across Melbourne as well as a number of programs directed at the youth of Melbourne and Sydney, as well as the rest of the Jewish community at large.
“Boruch Hashem, the community is very supportive of our work and is always ready to back the Shluchim’s efforts financially,” said one of the Shluchim. “However, as one can imagine, this takes an enormous amount of time and effort on the part of the Shluchim, taking away their focus from the enormous job at hand.”
This year, for the first time ever, the YG Shluchim are doing a Charidy campaign with the goal to raise $100,000AUD to help cover the costs of their activities throughout the year and ensure that all the efforts go into conquering Australia and turning it into a place the Rebbe would be proud of, leading the way to the Geulah, B’koroiv Mamash.
