This Tuesday, 11 Nissan, is the Rebbe's 120th birthday, marked with significance worldwide as Education and Sharing Day and celebrated by Chassidim worldwide as a day of reflection of the lessons we can cull from the Rebbe's life to live in the ways he demonstrated and taught us. Locally, Chabad of Texas was established as a birthday gift 50 years ago as one of 71 new institutions opened after his 70th birthday in 1972.
