Thousands of female Jewish leaders from around the world gathered in Brooklyn Monday for an annual conference.

The goal is to build connections and better serve Jewish communities worldwide.

 

After the multiday conference, attendees went to the Chabad-Lubavitch World Headquarters in Crown Heights. The headquarters is where Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, who is often considered the most influential Rabbi in modern history, taught and studied. This year was especially significant because it was the 25th anniversary of his death.

He was known for teaching Jewish people to love each other unconditionally and to do good deeds.
