Who are we? Why are we here?
And What do we mean to you?
Here are your answers:
THE FACTS
Chabad Lubavitch is a
worldwide movement that spreads Jewish awareness to all Jews whether male
or female, old or young. Rooted in 18th century White Russia in a small
town by the name of Lubavitch, Chabad has grown today to boast more than
2500 branches. Chabad Houses can be found in every part of the world such
as, Tasmania, Russia, Hawaii, and Bangkok striving in each one of those
places to do everything it can to help Jews be Jewish and provide the
Jewish community with all their religious needs.
The word Chabad is an acronym for "Chochmah", "Binah",
and "Daas", which means wisdom, understanding, and knowledge. The idea is to
turn intellect to action. Simply put: "don't just think it, do it". Learn
about your Judaism, and live your Judaism.
Chabad does not use labels. "A Jew is a Jew is a
Jew - Period." We have one Torah, , we have one G-d, and we are one
people. Chabad endeavors to reach out to every Jew regardless of
affiliation or background, reviving the sparks of Jewish consciousness
embedded in the heart and mind of every Jewish person.
