Rabbi Nlenachem NI. Schneerson
The Luba% licher Rebbe
This Sunday, April 16 — the 11th of Nissan in theJewish
calendar — world Jewry will celebrate the eighty-seventh birthday of
Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson, leader of the worldwide Chabad-
Lubavitch movement.
To his millions of followers and admirers he is "the Rebbe,"
today's most phenomenal Jewish personality and undoubtedly the
one individual singularly responsible for stirring the conscience and
spiritual awakening of world Jewry.
As leader of the Chabad-Lubavitch movement for the past 40
years, he has set into motion massive educational, social and
rehabilitative programs inspiring millions from all walks of life.
The Rebbe's brilliant insights into the human experience and
world events, his genuine compassion for others and above all his
concrete achievements of unprecedented magnitude, have won him
the admiration and respect of all those that have come to know
him.
On the Rebbe's birthday, Jews around the world will gather
together to celebrate the achievements of yet another year of the
Rebbe's visionary leadership.
The focus, however, is on the future.
The Chabad-Lubavitch global network will resolve to pursue an
even more ambitious agenda, reaching out to those who for one
reason or another still remain in need of help.
With this perspective on the future, the Chabad-Lubavitch
movement once again affirms its commitment to make this world a
brighter place.
