Yud Shvat | 10th of Shvat

Yud Shvat is a very special day in Chabad history.

On this day, the previous Rebbe of Chabad, Rabbi Yosef Yitzchak Schneersohn, passed away — a leader who devoted his entire life, with true self-sacrifice, to the Jewish people.
He stood strong in the most difficult times, dedicated himself to Jewish education, and worked tirelessly to ensure that Judaism would continue from generation to generation.

One year later, on this same day, Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson — the seventh generation of Chabad leadership — accepted the leadership of the movement.

From that moment on, the Rebbe became a Rebbe for every Jew.
With deep care and responsibility for each person, he launched the global Shlichut movement — sending emissaries around the world to support, guide, and strengthen Jewish life everywhere.

To mark this day, it is customary to light a candle — a tradition observed on the yahrzeit of a righteous person — in honor of the Rebbe’s soul.
Lighting a candle is a simple act that symbolizes remembrance, connection, and continuing the light he brought into the world.

Yud Shvat invites each of us to add light:
through a good deed, a kind word, or a moment of reflection.

24th of Tevet – Remembering the Alter Rebbe

Today we mark the anniversary of the passing of Rabbi Schneur Zalman of Liadi, the founder of the Chabad movement and a leading Jewish thinker.

His teachings brought a new approach to spirituality — one that emphasizes clarity, inner growth, and the ability of every person to bring meaning and light into daily life. He believed that faith is not meant to stay abstract, but should inspire thoughtful action, kindness, and a deeper sense of purpose.

Through his wisdom, the Alter Rebbe helped make spiritual ideas accessible and relevant, encouraging people to live with intention, understanding, and compassion.

✨ May his legacy continue to inspire goodness and light in the world.
May his memory be a blessing.
