The Rebbe’s Request Moments Before Yom Tov

by COLlive Editor · COLliveIt was Erev Shavuos, 5750 (1990). In Eretz Yisrael, Yom Tov was moments away. And then, a message came from the Rebbe.
The Rebbe sent a clear and urgent instruction: Reestablish the Chevras Tehillim at Kever Dovid HaMelech, and preferably before Shavuos begins.
There was no time to waste.
Rabbi Sholom Duchman, Director of Colel Chabad, immediately sprang into action. He reached out to his team in Eretz Yisrael. With just seconds to go before Yom Tov, the Tehillim at Kever Dovid was renewed.
And it has not stopped since.
Since that day, every single day without interruption, a group of Chassidim has gathered at Kever Dovid. They say Tehillim for the protection, healing, and well-being of Klal Yisrael.
What began with the Rebbe’s direction has become an ongoing source of brachos in the heart of Yerushalayim.
And today, anyone can be a part of it.
As Shavuos approaches, we wanted to share this meaningful opportunity: names can be included in the daily Tehillim at Kever Dovid—whether for a refuah, a shidduch, personal blessings, or any heartfelt tefillah.
Submit your name for Tefillah at Kever Dovid here.
As we enter Shavuos, may we all merit to receive the Torah b’simcha u’b’pnimius with true joy and deep connection.
And may the merit of these daily tefillos bring revealed good to all who need it, and may we merit the coming of Moshiach, now.
