Chesid is the attribute of generosity and kindness. When generosity is performed in Hashem’s name for the sake of others we perform a mitzvah.
Continuing Growth
Twenty three years ago Rabbi Mendy and Dinie Mangel came to our community charged with the Rebbe’s Mission to expand further develop, expand and nurture Torah observant Yiddishkeit for all Jews in our local communities. Starting with barely a minyan in the Mangel’s small apartment, then moving to a small storefront location in Voorhees before moving to our present campus in Cherry Hill, the growth of Chabad in terms of people, programs, services and activities has been a steady upward curve reflected in the accompanying Growth Chart.
This is a testament to the Rebbe’s belief that if you reach out to Jews non-judgmentally with genuine warmth and offer the opportunity to nurture our souls with genuine Yiddishkeit, we will respond. And we have. And now we have reached past the physical constraints of our present facility and must build anew to accommodate our continuing growth as we Build the Future Together!
Immeasurable Enrichment
For the past 23 years Chabad Lubavitch of Camden & Burlington Counties has been devoted to developing, nurturing and spreading Torah Observant Yiddishkeit in our community. Love of Judaism, Israel and Am Yisrael have been enriched immeasurably in our community through the tireless efforts of our rabbis, rebbetzins and lay leadership. And we have been rewarded. Our numbers and programs have increased beyond the capacity of our building.
Attendance across the full spectrum of services, programs and events are now attended in far greater numbers than can be comfortably accommodated in our present building. Our community’s profound thirst for Torah and tradition has contributed to this growing attendance. This ever growing demand dictates the need for additional space for our sanctuary, for Shabbat Kiddush, for educational class rooms for children and adults, to accommodate simultaneous events and programs, weddings and B’nai Mitzvot.
Your donation will be a mitzvah that will ensure that your selected Holiday, Parsha or Mitzvah will continue to the future generations of Jews that come to this Chabad to pray, to learn and to participate in events.
