What We Do

​

Our objective is to create meaningful Jewish experiences for those who have not yet had the opportunity to engage in our diverse Jewish community. Our programs become gates through which a person can meet new people, make meaningful connections and be inspired to do more Jewish.

Shabbat

Shabbat is the signature program at ChabaD; we gather together as a big family around one table and experience an authentic homemade Shabbat dinner. With song, spirit and sharing we celebrate community and recharge our spiritual batteries. Join the Pinson family (roughly) twice a month for good conversation, great energy, mixed drinks and soul food… Come enjoy Friday night at ChabaD; you’ll meet someone new every time!
