2 Thanks and Blessings to the Chassidic philanthropist who is always supportive of the shluchim and helps them generously, R' Sholom Ber Drizin May Hashem grant him length of days and good years, and may he, in good health, merit to see the hisgalus of the Rebbe MH"M, immediately. On behalf of thousands of shluchim. Preface Dear Shliach of the Rebbe Melech Hamoshiach, As we begin the International Conference of Shluchim 5779 we proudly present you with the program for this year's Kinus. We welcome the Rebbe's emissaries, the Shluchim who came from far and near, from all corners of the world, to sit down together and share ideas on expanding and optimizing the Shlichus, preparing the world for the coming of Moshiach and giving Nachas to the Meshaleiach, the Rebbe Melech Hamoshiach. Throughout the days of the Kinus, Farbrengens and sessions will take place to inspire the Shluchim to fulfill their sole Shlichus. The days of the Kinus will include sessions and lectures in a variety of topics, to help the Shluchim in all areas, focusing specifically on the challenges every Shliach faces on Shlichus. Sessions range from Chinuch and Teen 2 PROGRAM INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE OF SHLUCHIM 5779

3 programming to Halacha and Psychology, all filled with the message of redemption. Discussions and Farbrengens will take place with veteran Shluchim and Mashpiim, who will share their Shlichus stories and inspire the crowd to continue the Shlichus in the face of all challenges. The theme of the Kinus this year is, Explaining the Topic of Moshiach. This is based on what the Rebbe MH M said at the Kinus HaShluchim 5752, The meaning here is simply - that good resolutions ought to result from the Kinus HaShluchim about how every Shliach needs to prepare himself and prepare all Jews in his place and his city etc, to welcome Moshiach, by explaining the topic of Moshiach as it is explained in the Written and Oral Torah, in a way that can be accepted by each person according to his intellect and understanding. We hope that the Kinus will help each and every one of the Shluchim, and help us complete the job, and bring the complete revelation of the Rebbe Melech Hamoshiach.

4 The Gateway to Shlichus Today's farbrengen is being held at the beginning of the International Conference of Shluchim. It must be emphasized that the task of the shluchim in the present age, and particular at this time, is to prepare for the acceptance of Moshiach and the advent of the ultimate Redemption. This is the task facing every Jew, for we are all shluchim of G-d as obvious from the Mishnah's statement, "I was created solely to serve my Creator." In particular, however, this concept is relevant to those individuals who have merited to serve as the shluchim of the Previous Rebbe and dedicate their entire existence to this mission. To explain: Although as a whole, our shlichus is constant and unchanging, from time to time, a different dimension of the shlichus receives emphasis. At that time, that dimension permeates the entire shlichus and defines its character, serving as the gateway through which the entire shlichus ascends. Surely, this applies in the present instance, when the emphasis is on such an essential and all-encompassing point, preparing for Moshiach's coming. As mentioned repeatedly in the past, we are not speaking about a matter of the distant future, but rather a present and immediate concern. Our Sages declared that "all the appointed times for Moshiach's coming have passed." We have completed all the service required of us, even -- to borrow an expression from the Previous Rebbe -- "having polished the buttons." Thus in principle we are prepared to receive Moshiach, and the shlichus of our generation centers on preparing us to receive Moshiach in practice!...and this is the task of the International Conference of Shluchim: First and foremost, to make a public statement that this is the task confronting us -- to prepare ourselves to accept Moshiach. Every aspect of our service and every dimension of our activity must be directed to this goal. Shabbos Parshas Chaye Sarah PROGRAM INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE OF SHLUCHIM 5779

8 Connecting Through Writing We know that part of our Shlichus is to bring other Yidden closer to the Rebbe. One crucial factor in our Hiskashrus is writing personal letters to the Rebbe. This is a great privilege we have, and one that we should have in mind when all different types of situations come up, not only in our own lives but also in the lives of the people we have an influence on.

10 Kedas Moshe V'Yisroel Almost every Shliach is involved with the important topic of building Jewish homes and many Shluchim actually perform Jewish weddings in their community from time to time. Together with this comes the responsibility to make sure all is done in accordance with Halacha. In addition to being aware of the many Halachos involved, one must know when is the right time to pass the question onto a Rov.
