Come on! Anyone who has traveled out of town, and yes ANYONE, has been positively effected by the Chabad shiluchim around the globe. Every frum Yid, even the chassidishe Rebbes, who has vacationed in Palm Springs, or anywhere else has been positively impacted by having a minyan. Often having a mikva. Usually they know where to pick up some food with heimishe hechsheirim. The amazing kiruv that they do impacts us all. And its only because they have such Ahavas Yisroel. I was once in Vail, CO, and they have a most beautiful minyan. It is simply because of the mesiras nefesh of these sheluchim that so many people can daven (whatever nussach they want) with a minyan. In these hick OOT spots, no one is trying to make anyone Chabad. They are providing an island of Torah and Mitzvos in middle of the wilderness.
Its only the in towners that don’t see it, that don’t appreciate them.
(You don’t have to agree with EVERYONEs hashkofos – and very few a real meshachist).

And I am not Lubavitch. (But have been able to use their services when I travel). When you meet them personally, you become humbled by their accomplishments. And its kdai to support them).
