Belz Jubilee

With the approach of the fiftieth anniversary since the crowning of the present Rebbe of Belz, Hasidim all over the world are eagerly anticipating the festive jubilee to commemorate this milestone.  There are many little milestones along the long and arduous journey that the Rebbe started all those years ago, each of which would be enough to celebrate the prodigious achievements that he managed to build up from scratch.  This planned jubilee is a culmination of all those small and large projects, which the Rebbe unflinchingly pushed for, that at times seemed so far-fetched from ever reaching fruition, when many of his followers thought of giving up - as some did - this calls for a grand celebration.  Hasidim all over will use this opportune moment in the hard-won annals of Belz history, to wish the Rebbe many healthy and happy years, during which he will lead his flock in the ways of Torah, servitude to the Almighty and Hasidism, until the days of Mashiach - may we see it with our eyes, speedily Amen.
