0355 - Sending Shluchim to Miami Part 1

00:01 Concerning the inyan that the Rebbe would send schlucvim bochrim to the yeshivas to helping mechazek the yeshiva. So I would like to say over how it happened concerning Miami. When the Rebbe agreed to establish the yeshiva in Miami, and the Rebbe promised that he would send bochrim schlucvim. Then when I was appointed to become the head of the yeshiva, I didn't know exactly what to do concerning bochrim schlucvim. So after I got the answer from the Rebbe that I should do it, and I waited a while to see how it will work out with bochrim the schlucvim. I waited and waited, and I didn't hear anything. So I wrote to the Rebbe asking the Rebbe, "What should I do? How will we get the bochrim schlucvim? Should I go around amongst the bochrim and see who's ready to go, and then the Rebbe will send them, or what else should I do?" So the Rebbe answered me these words. "Yaschil mimasgirus." Start by going to Maskirus. The head of Maskirus was Rabbi Chadakov. That's the Rebbe's secretariat. He was the head secretary of the Rebbe. He was in charge of all the maizes. So the Rebbe said, "Go to him." So I went to Rabbi Chadakov, and I told him that concerning the schlucvim that will be sent to Miami, the Rebbe wrote to me, "Yaschil mimasgirus." I should start to Maskirus. So he said, "Okay." And that's the last I heard then, and I didn't do anything more. And a while later, I got

01:28 a list from Maskirus of the bochrim that were chosen. And then a member of Maskirus spoke to each one of the bochrim and asked them if they're ready to go, and they should get permission from the parents, and different questions that they asked. But the Rebbe wrote, "Yaschil mimasgirus." In other words, the concept of the bochrim being sent is something that comes from the Rebbe. That means that it's not something that like people think there is no shlichas there. It's just that you're chosen. The way it started was, "Yaschil mimasgirus." And we know Maskirus is like one with the Rebbe. No letter of Maskirus would go out without the Rebbe looking through it. And whatever Maskirus said, that is from the Rebbe. But mainly, what the Rebbe was saying, "Yaschil mimasgirus." He should start from Maskirus, that the schlucvim will be sent from Maskirus, and the schlucvim were chosen from Maskirus. I don't even know ad ayaim till today. I don't know who chose them, how they were chosen. But as far as I'm concerned, I got it from Maskirus, and it's the Rebbe who sent to Maskirus. This shows the importance and the preciousness of a shluch, a boch ha-shluch to the yeshivas.
