The PhilosoPhy:Chabad lubavitch is a philosophy, a movement, and
an organization.
it is considered to be the most dynamic force in Jewish life
today.The word Chabad is a hebrew acronym for the three
intellectual faculties of:
ChaChmah Wisdom, binah Comprehension & daaT Knowledge.
lubavitch appropriately means the city of brotherly love The
movements system of Jewish religious philosophy, the deepest
dimension of G-ds Torah

and purpose of Creation, and the importance and unique mission of
each Creature. This philosophy guides a person to refine and
govern his and her every act and feeling through wisdom,

3Message from the Rabbi & Rebbetzin
Welcome to our Gala and Silent Auction celebrating our 20th
Anniversary of service in Southern Nevada. As we reflect upon the
many landmarks of Chabads achievement in the greater Las Vegas area
over the course of the past twenty years, we find ourselves
inspired by what a remarkable phenomenon tonights milestone truly
is. Had anyone suggested back in 1990 that in the very midst of
this desert of decadence would emerge a bubbling oasis of
spirituality and benevolence five thriving Chabad Centers, two
mikvahs, a Torah day school, summer day camp and a constant stream
of outreach activities and services one would have labeled the
teller of such tall tales a wide-eyed dreamer; one totally out of
touch with reality. Yet, here we are, celebrating the realization
of precisely such a dynamic reality and then some.This is the
miracle of Chabad. As Shluchim (personal emissaries) of the
Lubavitcher Rebbe, we live with the
constant sense that we are extensions of something much bigger
than ourselves. We recognize that we ourselves often have no
concept of the full value and implications of what were involved in
at least not at the time were actually involved in it. But then,
every so often, were given this retrospective vision through which
we are able to look back and see how every obstacle was, in fact, a
springboard to greater growth; every ostensible setback a victory
in disguise; every encounter with another human being a vital link
in a chain that ultimately formed yet another school, another
outreach program or another vibrant center in yet another part of
town. A celebration such as this affords us that gift of
retrospective vision, enabling us to clearly see the miracle that
is Chabad of Southern Nevada.The Rebbe would often assure his
Shluchim that so long as we were not timid or fearful, and boldly
did what
needed to be done for the sake of helping people and building
Yiddishkeit in our respective communities, our ef-forts would bear
fruit. He further assured us that there would be those who would
come along and proudly partner themselves in these sacred
endeavors. Indeed, it is with this partnership formula that
Chabad-Lubavitch has been successful in sparking an unprecedented
resurgence of tradition in some 3,500 communities around the
world.Tonight, as we pay tribute to our esteemed friends, Dr. Phil
and Michele Devore, we appreciate the fact that the
Honorees are not merely champions of philanthropy; but are, in
fact, heart-and-soul partners in transforming our bold dreams into
glorious realities. The same is true of each and every one of you.
By virtue of your generosity and participation, you share equally
in the merit of bringing education, inspiration, comfort and
sustenance to hundreds of men, women and children throughout
greater Las Vegas and its surrounding vicinities. This celebration
is yours as much as it is ours.Todays festivities also mark the
formal dedication of The Robert Cohen Educational Campus. While
Robert is
not here physically to join in this celebration, we know that he
is here in spirit. His tremendous generosity has al-lowed us to
build this beautiful new facility. The voices of the children
learning in their brand new classrooms will serve as an everlasting
legacy to his memory which we honor tonight.On behalf of a grateful
community, we say thank you, as we look forward to continuing to
work together from
strength to greater strength

4A Salute to the Lubavitcher Rebbe
Rebbe, this year marks the 16th Anniversary of your passing.
When you were born, few realized the impact you would have on the
world. When you first encouraged Jews to become more observant,
many doubted your dream that so many would return to Judaism.Today,
thanks to your foresight, millions of men put on Tefillin daily,
millions of candles brighten Shabbat tables,
millions of pennies have filled millions of pushkas and millions
of Jewish hearts have been touched.While others have made
committees; waited for grants to be approved; set up
sub-committees; decided that due to
a lack of funding a program would have to be aborted; and rather
built wonderful edifices with skyscraping offices; you and your
emissaries have demonstrated that to touch a Jew, one need only
have the willingness, determination and real understanding of what
Ahavas Yisrael means.On behalf of the millions of neshamas that you
have rekindled we humbly say thank you.
to touch a Jew,One need only have the willingness,
determination
And real understanding of what Ahavas Yisrael means.

5The Chabad Movement
What is Chabad?Chabad is a movement comprised of people who are
deeply inspired by a system of teachings. The essence of these
teachings is that we are meant to know and understand G-d; that
we can find value and meaning in G-ds Torah and that putting that
knowledge and those values into action by practicing unconditional
love of our fellow Jews will bring deep and profound fulfillment
and joy. Chabad is dedicated to spreading the wonders and rewards
of Judaism throughout the world.
Our HistoryRabbi Israel ben Eliezer (1698 1760), known as the
Baal Shem Tov, founded the Chassidic movement. He taught
the unique importance of every Jew, no matter how much or how
little learned in Judaism. He taught that love of ones fellow Jew,
devotion in prayer, and wholehearted sincerity and joy in learning
and the practice of Torah are the essence of service G-d.Rabbi
Shneur Zalman of Liadi (1745 1812), known as the Alter Rebbe,
succeeded the Baal Shem Tov as the
leader of the Chassidic movement. He organized the teachings of
the Baal Shem Tov into a lucid systematic philosophy, which was
called Chabad after the Hebrew acronym for wisdom, understanding
and knowledge.The Alter Rebbes teachings were preserved and
amplified by his successors, the Rebbes of Chabad. For 100
years the Rebbes lived in the Byelorussian village of Lubavitch,
whose name, which means town of love has also appropriately
identified the movement. Each Rebbe involved himself, with great
personal sacrifice, in the struggles of the Jews of his time. Most
suffered imprisonment, torture or exile at the hands of the
Tsarist, Communist and Nazi regimes.
Chabad TodayInspired by the Rebbes vision, Chabad has flourished
and prospered, bringing education and inspiration to Jews
worldwide. Thousands of dedicated men and women have established
and oversee 3500 Chabad centers around the globe. These centers run
an astonishing range of services and projects based on community
needs, including adult educational classes, day schools and Hebrew
schools, synagogues, summer camps, and social service and drug
rehabilitation programs. Whether in Brooklyn or Brazil, Australia
or Austria, Kansas City or Kiev, Hungary or the Holy Land, you can
expect to find people dedicated to the Chabad ideal, raising the
level of Jewish awareness and involvement. Most Chabad centers,
including the five in Southern Nevada operate independently and
raise their funds locally. Aside from seed money, they neither
receive from nor channel funds to any central organization.
Chabad is dedicated to spreading the wondersand rewards of
Judaism throughout the world

6Chabad of Southern NevadaCelebrating 20 years of Service
To the Greater Las Vegas Valley1990-2010
It is the High Holidays. Glancing around the Chabad Shul on
Arville St., one spots Las Vegas Mayor Os-car Goodman and
Congresswoman Shelley Berkley. Not that the participation of a
dignitary or celebrity with Chabad is a particulary novel or
unusual phenomenon. Indeed, the real beauty of Chabad of Southern
Nevada lies in the fact that it creates an environment in which
Jews from literally all walks of life can feel completely at home.
Rich or poor, observant or uncommitted, liberal or conservative,
involved or unaffiliated, Chabad takes pride in transcending all
barriers while offering its pro-grams to the broadest cross-section
of the community.
In the words of renowned boxing promoter and attorney, Bob Arum,
who Chabad honored at its 2002 Banquet, Chabad is about a spirit of
the heart not found elsewhere. I think that all who feel deeply
about Judaism have to support the wonderful work they do.
Dr. Miriam and Sheldon Adelson, developers of the Las Vegas
Venetian Hotel and the Palazzo Hotel, who see Chabad as being at
the forefront of upholding and preserving Jewish tradition, echo
the sentiments. They are the ones who keep it alive, say the
Adelsons, whose family name adorns the Chabad community center they
helped build. We are just as proud to have our names on this
building as we are to have it on the Venetian. When the Lubavitcher
Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson, dispatched his Shluchim, or
emissaries,
to open Chabad Houses all over the world, the intent was to make
Jewish education, Torah observance and material assistance readily
accessible to any and all Jews especially those who might otherwise
be lacking any of these essentials in their lives. Indeed, Ahavat
Yisroel the love for a fellow has always been at the core of the
Rebbes vision and modus operandi.
The Rebbes charter defining what a Chabad Center is all about
has been succinctly summarized as, A place of Torah, prayer and
acts of loving-kindness. Chabad Houses, said the Rebbe must always
have open doors so that any Jew could feel a sense of belonging
therein. Chabad Shluchim, he said, must always have open hearts so
that any Jew could feel that they have some-one to turn to; someone
who genuinely cares about them, welcomes them, and stands ready to
assist them un-conditionally in whatever matter may be. With some
3500 such Chabad Houses dotting the globe, Chabad-Lubavitch is thus
the largest network of Jewish educa-tional and social service
organizations in the world today.
In his teachings and initiatives, the Rebbe repeatedly
emphasized that a Jew can only reach the height of his own
potential when he recognizes that he is inextricably bound with his
fellow. Jews are never islands unto themselves, he would say, but
are, in fact, deficient and incomplete without one another. We give
strength to one another even as we draw strength from one
another.
-
7It is with this caring approach and sense of mutual
responsibility that a young Rabbi Shea Harlig, his wife, Dina and
their then infant daughter, Chayala, moved out to the Las Vegas
Valley in December of 1990. To this day, Rabbi Harlig attributes
his relentless drive to build a stronger and more vibrant Jewish
community to the mandate and blessings he received from the Rebbe
on the day prior to his familys departure from Brooklyn for the
Silver State.
Back in those pioneering days, Chabads center of operations was
the Harlig home. Hebrew school classes and synagogue services were
held in the living room. It wasnt long before these humble quarters
were outgrown, leading to the 1992 acquisition of a 4,000 square
foot house which was converted into a pre-school, Hebrew school,
synagogue and outreach center.
From this milestone, other exciting developments would follow in
rapid and constant succession: A beautiful state-of-the-art Mikvah
would be built as an adjunct to the Vista property; summer camp for
children of all ages would be started; a magnificent $1.5 million,
13,000 square foot community center would be erected; a Jewish Day
School and Preschool from 2 year-olds through eighth grade with an
enrollment of close to 175 students would be established;
additional centers in Summerlin (which has its own $4 million,
15,000 square foot center) and Green Valley will be opened; a
special center for the Hebrew speaking/Sephardic community, as well
as for college students at UNLV; scores of additional Shluchim,
teachers and staff members would join the Chabad team Each Chabad
milestone would serve as a stepping-stone to yet another program
and yet another phase of growth and expansion.
On August 25, 2010, Chabad had the ribbon cutting and opening of
its most ambitious project to date, The Robert Cohen Educational
Campus, a magnificent, new $10 million, 65,000 square foot school
facility. The building includes 19 classrooms, a gym, science lab,
computer lab, and library and art room. This has allowed
Chabads Desert Torah Academy to expand its academic goals to
much greater heights. Both faculty and students come to school each
day with smiles on their faces, happy to begin each day at the
stunning new school.
Today, hundreds of children and teenagers from Las Vegas and its
surrounding vicinities receive their vital education through
Chabads schools, camps and youth programs, some at DTA and some at
the satellite centers.
Jewish family life finds joyous expression through Chabads
synagogues, Mikvah, holiday festivals and mitzvah outreach
programs. Indeed, Chabad has a distinctive reputation for the
joyous and captivating manner in which it animates Jewish tradition
and brings it to life in vivid color. Its model Matzah Bakeries,
Shofar Factories and Olive Oil Presses are visited by public and
private school students alike enabling children to actually touch
and create the holiday rituals, even as they learn the rich history
and meaning behind them.
When hundreds join together to celebrate the kindling of a
twenty-foot menorah in the heart of Downtown Las Vegas Fremont St.,
when many gather at the District in Green Valley or the Smiths
parking lot in Summerlin, its a very different sort of light
piercing through the superficial strobes of the surrounding casinos
the light of Jewish souls radiating the pride and solidarity of
Yiddishkeit.
When Chabad wants to ensure that Jewish households have kosher
Mezuzot on their doorposts or that they are following proper
procedures in setting up kosher kitchens, its rabbis will make
house calls to assist in the process. In fact, Chabad of Southern
Nevada has its own resident sofer, or scribe, on staff qualified to
check the ritual validity of Mezuzot and Tefillin. Kosher food,
even freshly cut kosher meat, is now available aplenty in major Las
Vegas supermarkets, such as Smiths and Albertsons as a result of
Chabads hands-on involvement and coordination with these chains.
The same is true of Chabads kosher supervisory efforts on behalf of
local restaurants. Kosher observant tourists
-
8and conventioneers coming to town likewise know that they can
always turn to Chabad for assistance in securing kosher food and
Shabbat accommodations.
Adults of every stripe from baby-boomers to senior citizens
discover that its never too late to begin plumbing the depths of
ones Jewish roots. Nightly Torah classes, lecture series,
workshops, seminars and one-on-one learning sessions are some of
the adult education opportunities Chabad brings to the fore. In
addition to these on-site learning opportunities, Chabad also has a
comprehensive communications department that utilizes modern
technology to disseminate age-old teachings for off-site learning.
Its expansive website, www.chabadlv.org offers a wealth of Torah
wisdom and insights, and its steady flow of colorful publications
such as holiday guides, newsletters, Jewish calendars and the
acclaimed weekly Torah by Email.
Families that have children with special needs can find some
comfort and assistance with our Friendship Circle Program. Those
who suddenly find themselves in dire straits can know that Chabads
Chesed Indigent Fund is there to unconditionally lend a loving and
helping hand providing food, shelter and/or emergency subsidies.
Those who are experiencing any sort of emotional difficulty or
trauma in their lives, or perhaps just need a friendly shoulder to
lean on, can know that wise and empathetic support is always
available through Chabads crisis counseling program.
Residents at numerous senior citizen care facilities centers
throughout the Valley can always look forward to their Pre-Shabbat
and holiday visits by a Chabad rabbi. Those who are laid up in area
hospitals are likely to be paid a visit by Chabad as part of its
extensive chaplaincy program, as are those who have the misfortune
of being behind bars.
Chabads newest activities, Project Pride, to combat substance
abuse in the Las Vegas community and the recent opening of
Dinosaurs & Roses, a resale shoppe (at the corner of Jones and
Charleston), that has clothing,
furniture and housewares at discounted prices for all those in
need.
Twenty years after Rabbi Shea Harlig received his mandate from
the Lubavitcher Rebbe to provide inspiration and assistance to the
Jewish community with whatever the matter may be a veritable
one-stop-shop for Jewish living Chabad of Southern Nevada has
indeed established itself as one of the most dynamic and
flourishing centers of Jewish life in the western region of the
United States.
In all, it is readily apparent that as the Las Vegas Valley has
bloomed and blossomed, Chabad has surged right along with it. This
is an energetic and caring organization, says Rabbi Harlig While we
are deeply committed to Torah tradition, we do not require or
expect those who participate in our programs to have that same
level of commitment. Our doors are open to all. At Chabad, people
of all backgrounds and affiliations or lack thereof come together
to learn, to celebrate, to connect and to shareOur purpose is to
enrich and enhance peoples lives be it in the realms of the
emotional, spiritual, material or otherwise.
On the micro level of individual communities to the macro level
of the global network of Chabad-Lubavitch, each new day shows how
the growth of Judaism perpetuates greater growth-in exponential
fashion. Spirituality begets greater spirituality; goodness begets
more goodness. Each act of kindness performed by one human being
for the sake of another brings more such acts in its wake, thereby
moving the world that much closer to ushering in the long
prophesied era of Moshiach a state of global harmony, tranquility
and peace which the Lubavitcher Rebbe set forth as the urgent and
imminent objective of our times. Indeed, each new day demonstrates
how his vision and goal of thus transforming the world was not only
brilliant and idealistic; but also quite practical and
acheiveable.

The Chabad organization has undertaken a monumental worldwide
outreach task that has had a huge daily impact on the Jewish
people. To me, it appears that the Chabad movement is the chosen
group within the chosen people to usher us into the age of
Mashiach. That is why it is incumbent upon all Jews and non Jews to
support their causes worldwide and at home with all our
heart, strength, and finances to help them achieve their
endeavors. It is great to celebrate 20 Years of having Chabad in
Las Vegas. Lets continue
to challenge ourselves to increase our support for Chabad this
year. The Chabad Rabbis work tirelessly and even with the 150% they
put in they must not carry the burden alone. In truth, their
success depends on not just
our support alone, but in our person spiritual growth as a
people.
Special thanks to Rabbi Shea & Rebbetzin Dina Harlig &
their Family, And to all the Chabad Rabbis & Rebbetzins here
and their great staff.
Thank you from the Scheinman Family

To Phil and Michelle Devore, We wish you a hearty Mazel Tov for
all that you have done for our Chabad of Southern
Nevada and Desert Torah Academy, whether it be in the
architectural planning of the day school, daily encouragement given
to the Rabbi about his building of the new school, fundraising for
the school through the opening of a new thrift shop which will help
immeasurably to bring much needed funds to the school and
affordable necessities to all who come to purchase, or donating
beautiful silver ornaments to adorn the interior of our
synagogue.
On a more personal note, we have known you, Michelle for close
to 18 years now. We feel like we are part of your family, taking
great pride in your son Shawn, who we helped to reach his Bar
Mitzvah, and your wonderful children, Phil, your daughter Stefanie,
and son Greg, who we have met on many occasion. We also are so
thankful to you, Phil for reintroducing us to the importance of
dental care because of the care that you so professionally show to
each and every one of us. The two of you are a treasure to all of
us.
To Rabbi and Dina Harlig,Mazel Tov to you on the building of
this beautiful edifice which will only serve to
inculcate more and more Yiddishkeit into the hearts of the
children who will go through its doors. You built it so well, so
much that it brings to mind a commentary that I came upon
yesterday, in Divrei Hayomim Bet, Perek Gimel, where it speaks of
the two pillars built for the Beis Hamikdash, called Yochin and
Boaz they were given the names of Yachin, so that they should be
Yachin( Ready forever) and Boaz( Two words of Bo and Oz that it
should have in it Oz and Chozek Liam Yisrael Liolam Voed, that is
should have strength in it for the nation of Israel forever) So,
too with this school. It should be ready and have strength in it
for Am Yisrael forever!!
Mazel Tov from the Segelsteins, Shoshana and Michael, Bryna in
Tzfat, Israel, Rafi in Los Angeles,
and Ariella in Crown Heights

Mom and Dad,Watching you traverse the road of life together has
been an inspiration to the three of us. Youve weathered difficult
times together and shared numerous successes, all the while
maintaining your faith and making time to help those who need it
most. Though always leading by example, youve instilled in us a
core value system, which has allowed us to grow
into mature, well-rounded, successful adults. Because of your,
we have all chosen career paths dedicated to serving our community
and giving back to people less fortunate than ourselves. Thank-you
for all the years of wisdom, guidance and unconditional love.
