Rabbi Moshe Feller
 is a senior Shliach (Chabad-Lubavitch emissary); he has been reaching out to fellow Jews in his native Minnesota since the early 1960's. In particular, he is famous for always carrying a pair of Tefillin wherever he goes, adopting the American Express Card motto "Don't leave home without it!" He is constantly ready to help a fellow Jew don Tefillin. At a recent Farbrengen attended by students of the Rabbinical College, Rabbi Feller shared many gems.
