The Start of a Campaign

Rabbi Chaim Jacobs and his wife Sora, have been the co-directors of Lubavitch of Scotland for more than four decades. In 1967, the Rebbe launched the now famous Tefillin campaign. A Yeshiva student at the time, Rabbi Jacobs began an initiative for students to visit the local Jews and help them don Tefillin. He remembers the Rebbe’s warm responses to the work they were doing.
