Tonight, Motzei Shabbos Kodesh, the International Kinus Hashluchim will hold its annual Gala Banquet at the Razag Ballroom in Crown Heights. Thousands of shluchim from every corner of the world will gather for an evening focused on the central mission of our time: preparing the world to greet Moshiach in actual reality.
The live stream will be available right here, beginning at 7:30 PM EST when doors open, with the formal program starting at 8:00 PM EST.
This Year’s Theme: The Additional Ten Powers of the Soul
The banquet takes place under a powerful theme this year: “Shliach with the additional ten powers of the soul – numerically equivalent to Moshiach.” This reflects the reality that every shliach today operates with enhanced spiritual capacity to fulfill the unique mission entrusted by the Rebbe.
The program is designed to provide renewed strength and dedication to continue with full momentum in the work of shlichus that the Rebbe assigned at the 1992 Kinus: preparing the world to greet Moshiach Tzidkeinu in actual, tangible reality.
What Tonight’s Program Includes
Inspiring Addresses: Leading voices in the shlichus world will share insights on strengthening Moshiach awareness work and implementing the Rebbe’s directives with greater intensity.
Stories from the Field: Real accounts from shluchim worldwide showing how communities are being awakened to the imminence of Geulah and how the Rebbe’s vision is being realized globally.
Musical Performances: Songs and melodies that have accompanied the movement’s work and capture the spirit of anticipation for Moshiach’s revelation.
The Energy of Unity: Thousands gathered with one shared purpose – bringing Geulah now – creates an atmosphere that reaches every viewer joining via live stream.
Why Tonight Matters
The annual Kinus represents more than a gathering. It’s a recharged commitment to the Rebbe’s directive that defines everything happening in Chabad today. Since the 1992 Kinus, the Rebbe made clear that our singular focus must be bringing the world to a state of readiness for Geulah.
Tonight’s banquet brings that mission into sharp focus. Every address, every musical moment, every story shared from the field centers on one question: How do we accelerate the arrival of Moshiach through our daily work?
This isn’t theoretical discussion. It’s about concrete implementation of the Rebbe’s vision in our daily lives, in our communities, and in how we approach every Jew we encounter.
The Rebbe’s Directives for Protection and Geulah
Tonight’s program includes special focus on the Rebbe’s campaigns – not as historical directives but as active tools for ensuring protection and salvation of the Jewish people in Israel and around the globe. The emphasis is on actions necessary right now, practical steps each person can take to fulfill our role in hastening the Geulah.

From Tonight to Yerushalayim
The Kinus has always concluded with the blessing that next year’s gathering will take place in Yerushalayim with the revelation of Moshiach. But that’s not just a hopeful wish – it’s the stated goal driving every program, every workshop, every initiative discussed during the Kinus.
Tonight’s banquet focuses that message and sends shluchim back to their posts with renewed determination to make it happen. The Rebbe gave us the tools, the roadmap, and the assurance that we’re the generation that will see it.
