Over the years, the Rebbe answered tens of thousands of letters, a portion of which are printed in the series known as Igros Kodesh. In these letters, we find a treasure trove of compassion, wisdom, faith, and practicality—but perhaps most importantly, a direct path to personal insight into the Rebbe's approach to a vast range of life's issues.
Join Rabbi Shais Taub together with people from all over the world in studying Thirty Letters in Thirty Days during the month leading up to the celebration of the Rebbe's 120th birthday on 11 Nissan.

The role of a Jewish school was once merely to ensure that a child become an educated Jew. Today, however, the school's purpose is far more basic than that, i.e. to see to it that the child remain within the fold of Judaism.
