Judaism. Done. Joyfully.
Chabad believes that community is vital for the growth of the human spirit.

We, therefore, provide a space where people come together to celebrate, to study, to care, to heal and to mourn. Chabad's goal is to encourage people to live a more meaningful life by sharing their passions, ideas and inspirations with others. To care for others in their community and to be cared for by others in turn.

We provide Jewish oriented programs, events, lectures, prayer services, study groups, outings and meals that bring people together in a shared interdependent space where they can grow together.

Join us at one of our upcoming events and see for yourself!

Daily Thought
The Illusion of Failure
Life upon this earth is worthwhile—every moment of it. It is impossible that G‑d breathes life into you and yet you have no purpose in being alive. G‑d does not create failures. We all know the specter of futility. Empty, wasted days—even lives that would seem far better off had they never been. But it is all an artifact of our constricted view. We who have no clue of the purpose of each life within the Creator’s grand scheme, no knowledge of the story of the divine spark within each creature. No concept of who we truly are. How could we measure the value of one more breath of life? If we had a...
