Some 3,000 Chabad women emissaries serving in posts around the world came to New York for their annual international conference.
The conference, which concluded Feb. 19 with a gala banquet, brought together thousands of day school principals, Hebrew school directors, adult educators, counselors, motivational speakers and their supporters for several days of workshops, inspirational programs, networking opportunities and celebrations.
Since its establishment, the event has been held near the anniversary of the 1988 death of the wife of the last Lubavitcher rebbe, Menachem Mendel Schneerson. Chaya Mushka Schneerson died on the 22nd day of the Hebrew month of Shevat. — jta
