Agudas Nashim Tzeiros Lubavitch (Young Women's Association of Lubavitch)

Agudas Nashim Tzeiros Lubavitch is an association of young women affiliated with the Lubavitch movement, dedicated to supporting Lubavitch institutions and serving as living examples of Chassidic womanhood. Their activities include organizing communal events and fostering spiritual growth within their homes and communities.

Correspondence with the Rebbe

The Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, corresponded with Agudas Nashim Tzeiros Lubavitch to acknowledge their communal efforts and to offer guidance and blessings. In a letter dated Motzaei Shabbat Parshas Yisro, 21 Shevat 5712 (1952), the Rebbe expressed pleasure upon receiving their report of activities and their upcoming Melaveh Malka gathering. He emphasized the enduring hope and expectations placed upon the association by his father-in-law, the Previous Rebbe, and explained that the wishes of a tzaddik are not merely requests but also convey special empowerment to fulfill them.

The Rebbe encouraged the members to channel all their strengths into fulfilling these expectations, assuring them that doing so would bring true nachas ruach (spiritual satisfaction) and serve as a conduit for personal blessings and success. He highlighted that their role extends beyond fundraising for Lubavitch institutions; as young women, each member exerts significant influence within her home and broader environment, serving as a living example of a Chassidic woman. The Rebbe cited the Torah’s emphasis on addressing women first—“So shall you say to the house of Jacob”—underscoring the foundational role of women in ensuring the continuity and vitality of Torah and Chassidic life.

Themes and Guidance

The Rebbe’s correspondence with Agudas Nashim Tzeiros Lubavitch centers on themes of empowerment, responsibility, and spiritual influence. He urged the association to embody and model Chassidic values with pride and joy, both within their own households and in their wider circles of friends and acquaintances. The tone of the letter is warm, encouraging, and deeply respectful, reflecting the Rebbe’s recognition of the unique and vital role of women in the perpetuation of Jewish and Chassidic tradition.
