International Conference of Chabad-Lubavitch Emissaries

Senator Joseph I. Lieberman was the Democratic Party nominee for Vice President in the 2000 election, but his deeply personal relationship with Chabad began in the 1960s, before he started a political career. The Rebbe's vision and emissaries, he says, continue to empower him to openly embrace his faith wherever he finds himself, and they will continue to empower the Jewish people and all humanity for eternity.

Rabbi Dov Greenberg offers a deeply personal account of the Rebbe’s take on Song of Songs’ imagery of a maiden and shepherd who cycle from intense love to outright rejection before the shepherd reignites her passion. This embodies the turbulent relationship between the Jewish people and G‑d. It is our mission to be shepherds of Israel, reaching deep to reignite the passionate soul of Judaism.

Chief Rabbi of the British Commonwealth, Rabbi Jonathan Sacks, tells how the Rebbe's guidance affected him at three critical junctures in his life. Rabbi Sacks suggests that we can all live the Rebbe's vision by a) increasing in love for all Jews, b) empowering individuals to discover their true potential, and c) sharing our Jewish commitment and observance with others.
