Shalom u'Vrachah!

... you stated in the response to my question regarding spreading the wellsprings, that it was already suggested several times to the esteemed rabbi, etc., shlita, that it is necessary for a special person to come to their esteemed community, etc. — the great wonder in this is obvious: do they really tell themselves that they were sent to... in order to slaughter a certain number of cattle and poultry, or in order to pray and deliver a sermon specifically in a certain place? The well-known example is of a servant who was taught to be a pearl-cutter but is occupied with selling bread and meat; even though bread and meat are necessary, for this there is no need for the investment of revealed and hidden abilities that were invested in him, and this could be done by many others whom our Rebbeim did not give their lives to educate specifically within the walls of Tomchei Temimim and to draw down an abundance of light. And even though it is understood that the effect of this investment is noticeable in whatever they do, even in selling bread and meat, this is only a peripheral matter, and it is obvious that it is not the main point. Especially since they themselves see clearly — that they have been in this place for several years and Divine Providence has not brought there anyone else from the temimim or the Chabad brotherhood, even though it is clear that spreading the wellsprings must also reach their esteemed community.

It is understood that you are both permitted and have the merit to convey the aforementioned matters also to the mara d'asra (community rabbi), since these words are also directed at him. In fact, as explained in many places, the responsibility of the mara d'asra is even greater than that of the shochet, although the latter's responsibility is also significant—as explained by my revered father-in-law, the Rebbe: "A shochet is not a Skatobayetz," etc.

And since we are now coming from the month of redemption—Tammuz—the month of our Rebbe's redemption, our leader and head of Israel, and as the body follows the head, may it be G‑d's will that each one of us be redeemed immediately from all confusing matters—both material and spiritual—and experience a revealed victory over them, just as in those days at this time. May we be able to serve Hashem with joy and gladness of heart, focusing especially on spreading the wellsprings (until they reach) outward.

With blessings for good news in all mentioned above.

Summary

The Rebbe teaches that sharing Torah guidance with community leaders strengthens their vital role. He links personal and communal redemption to spreading Chassidus outward with joy and clarity.
