"Yud Shevat" -- the 10th day of the Hebrew month of Shevat -- is a most significant date on the Chassidic calendar. It is the yahrtzeit (anniversary of the passing) of the sixth Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Yosef Yitzchak Schneersohn (1880-1950). It is also the day when, in 1951, the seventh Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson (1902-1994), formally accepted the leadership of Chabad-Lubavitch with a historic maamar (discourse) and address at a farbrengen (chassidic gathering) marking the first anniversary of his predecessor's passing.As I usually point out on these kinds of days, on Wednesday night your local Chabad House or Chabad Center will probably be having an event, a farbrengen, at which any Jew will be welcome. The proceedings will involve eating, drinking, singing Chassidic melodies, and hearing an inspirational speaker. Try to attend.
