“Having both the pleasure and honor of getting to know Rabbi Brook, Devora and their lovely family since they moved recently to the neighborhood, I am struck by the synergy of their passion for celebrating life, cultivating learning and conveying Jewish spirituality.

Their acceptance and unabashed desire to bring people together regardless of disparate backgrounds is palpable and magnetic… these are inspirational characteristics my family has been missing from our desire for greater spirituality, and I am so grateful for Chabad of Wakefield entering our lives!”

“Through Chabad of Wakefield, my family and I have found the deeper connection and understanding of Judaism that we had been searching for. We have become part of a joyous and friendly community.

Via the direct enthusiastic guidance of Rabbi Brook, Mezuzahs, Tefillin, Havdalah, Shabbat, and more have all become a meaningful part of our family life.”

“My parents are Ukrainian Americans who were born under communism and faced persecution for their religion. They’re very proud to be Jewish, but because of their circumstances, they had very little religious tradition or education to pass down mostly just a strong sense of Jewish pride...

But I do want my children to understand and appreciate their heritage. That’s where the Jewish Kids Club comes in. My kids genuinely love attending, and it’s been a wonderful way for our family to stay connected to our roots.”

Sophia Strong

“We joined Chabad of Wakefield because we wished to be part of a welcoming community where we could celebrate and study our Jewish heritage.”
