An army of staffers, chefs and delivery crews are making final preparations for the fast-approaching International Conference of Chabad-Lubavitch Emissaries, which is organized each year by Merkos L'Inyonei Chinuch, the education arm of the worldwide Chabad-Lubavitch movement.
The conference will bring more than 4,000 emissaries and their lay leaders from more than 70 countries to New York for a five-day event designed to strengthen those who strengthen Jewish communities around the globe.
