The Rebbe of Stutshin will visit the Holy Land for a rare Shabbat in Jerusalem, responding to entreaties from his followers in Israel. This visit marks a significant occasion, as the Rebbe seldom holds Sabbaths outside his residence in the United States. The trip is set for the Sabbath of Parshat Noah, preceding the yahrzeit of his grandfather, Rabbi Yehuda of Stutshin. Chassidim from New York and Europe will accompany the Rebbe. The central event will be the Sabbath services and meals held at the "Beit Malka" hall in Jerusalem, drawing large crowds of followers. Following the Sabbath, on Sunday, the Rebbe and his entourage will travel to Tiberias to visit the grave of his grandfather, whose 45th yahrzeit falls on Tuesday, the 9th of Cheshvan. The itinerary also includes visits to holy sites in the Galilee, such as the tomb of Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai in Meron. The Rebbe is scheduled to return to New York on Monday, where he will conduct the annual yahrzeit ceremony at his synagogue in Boro Park.
