CARPOOL TRIP TO THE REBBE'S OHEL THIS SUNDAY MORNING
On Wednesday, April 16, we celebrate the birthday of the Lubavitcher Rebbe, of righteous memory: 11 Nissan 5752 (1902) - 3 Tammuz 5754 (1994). In honor of this special day, we will be taking a community trip to the Ohel, gravesite of the Rebbe (in Queens) on Sunday, April 13, 11:45 AM - following our weekly Torah class. A trip to the Ohel is a time for prayer, reflection and connection and i encourage you to join us. We will travel in a row of cars from Chabad at 11:45 AM and should be back in town by 2:00 the latest. All are welcome to join us!

As Pesach nears and we are all busy with the hustle and bustle of preparations, please do not forget to “sell your chometz”. This is a very small, easily accomplished mitzvah but it means a great deal.
By filling out a simple online form which takes about 60 seconds to do, you legally forfeit ownership of any “chametz” – leavened products – which you might have in your possession. This includes all breads, pastas, alcoholic beverages, etc., all products forbidden for us to have in our possession during Passover. If you don't sell the chometz you must physically finish all of these products or throw out whatever you might have. With this “sale” – all you've got to do is put the chometz in a closed off area (e.g. a locked closet, a sealed off room) which you will not use during Passover, and you're good to go! So take moment to fill out the form. It's well worth the minute it takes! Click here and make sure to submit the form by Thursday, April 17, before 5 PM.
Also, make sure your family has a box of hand made Shmura Matzah to use at the seders. This is considered to be a special mitzvah. Shmurah Matzah is available at King Kullen in Port Washington and Manhasset.
Have a kosher and joyous Pesach!
Rabbi Shalom M. Paltiel

This season is a great time for decluttering, and with Chabad's CLUTTERFREE program, it's never been easier! If you have items of value that are no longer wanted in your home or office, you may want to consider donating them to be sold on ebay for CHABAD'S benefit. This is an ongoing effort to raise funds for Chabad of Port Washington. Call our CLUTTERFREE coordinator, Donna Benabou, 516-551-5785 or email [email protected]. Visit our website for more information and guidelines on this exciting initiative - www.chabadpw.org/clutterfree! Thank you in advance for your participation!
