Try to receive an aliyah.
The parshah should not be split into additional aliyos for this purpose. Instead, the Torah should be read a number of times if necessary (making sure at least six members of each minyan have not yet heard the kriah). The most prominent individual in the group (following the agreement of the majority of the minyan) should be given maftir. Alternatively, maftir should be allocated via a goral.
A kiddush/farbrengen should be arranged today, in preparation for Gimmel Tammuz.
Read the fourth chapter of Pirkei Avos.
Motzoei Shabbos

Light a candle (preferably beeswax) that will burn until after nightfall, Sunday night.
Today, in the year 5687 (1927), the Frierdiker Rebbe was released from the Spalerno prison in Leningrad and sent to Kostroma for (what was originally meant to be) a three-year exile.
Today is the yom hilula of the Rebbe. The yahrzeit of the nassi is a day of increased hiskashrus with the Rebbe, as well as a day of yeshu’os, blessing and growth. It is marked by strengthening our connection through learning his Torah, fulfilling his directives and mivtzoim, and sharing his message and life with others.
