We are part of a the global network of over 2,500 centers worldwide, providing a wide variety of educational, religious, and social services, according to the teachings of The Lubavitcher Rebbe, toward the goal of making our world better, holier place.
Chabad is under the spiritual guidance of Rabbi Mendy and Shterna Kaminker, a warm, caring and energetic couple. Their approach is that Torah must be presented and experienced in a modern, relevant context and made available to each individual on their own level.

Daily Thought
The sound of the shofar
is not the cry of a human voice.
It is the howl of an animal’s horn.
It is a cry so primal, so raw,
that the mind ceases to ponder,
the heart suspends its throb.
With the fury of a beast pent up in its cage,
the naked essence of the soul bursts out,
howling, ripping through heaven’s curtains,
awakening the primal essence of all being.
The raw core of your soul below
touches the Primal Essence above,
and now their reunion may begin.
