The Rebbe shlit"a davened Shacharis in the Heichal of the Mesivta, Eitzei Chaim branch, Shiur Gimmel. Before davening, the Rebbe put on tefillin for the bar mitzvah bochur, the bochur Shimon Schwartz.
After davening, the Rebbe led the daily Tehillim shiur, on chapter 15, verse 3. Afterwards, a lechayim took place with the bar mitzvah bochur in the Rebbe's private room.

In the afternoon at around 4:15, the Rebbe shlit"a arrived at Beis Medrash Yismach Moshe for the Yom HaIchud gathering of the nearly one thousand talmidim of the preparatory classes for yeshiva, ninth grade, in our holy mosdos throughout greater New York. The Rebbe davened Mincha, and then went up to the dais of honor. The bochurim sang several nigunim and recited rhymes in his honor.
Afterwards, the directors presented the Rebbe shlit"a with a "minchas bikkurim," a kvitel listing the names of all the bochurim along with the thousands of consecutive hours learned during the Yemei HaShovavim, may they be renewed for good.

The Rebbe shlit"a delivered holy words and guidance to the bochurim, with words of chizuk in Torah learning. At the conclusion of his remarks, the Rebbe spoke with emotion from the depths of his pure heart about the holy journey to the city of the forefathers, Sighet, for Shabbos Parshas Shekalim, on the occasion of the yahrzeit of his grandfather, the Gaon and Kadosh, the Kedushas Yom Tov zy"a, and about spending the Shabbos of "Yeshiva Shel Maalah" with talmidim of our holy yeshivos from Eretz Yisroel and Europe. The Rebbe spoke of the connection to the Rebbes, the Eitzei HaTemarim zy"a, and the tremendous efforts they invested in spreading Torah among bochurim, and with holy emotion spoke of the privilege of being able to teach bochurim in the place of the yeshiva of his holy forebears. He said that IY"H he will take along the kvitel listing the consecutive hours of the bochurim, in order to bring a greeting of shalom from the bochurim here, and concluded with his holy blessing.
Afterwards the Rebbe went into his private room and distributed holy coins to the talmidim who had learned the consecutive hours during the Yemei HaShovavim, may they be renewed for good. It concluded at around 5:45.
