A Community Grows Together
When the world seeks to intimidate and marginalize the Jewish people, the clearest refutation and response is to simply and proudly increase our level of Jewish practice.
Many Jews have realized the futility of living in fear and anxiety, of hoping for someone to save us. The sense of passive powerlessness can be equally disappointing; what CAN we do?
Sure, we can call out antisemitism and learn to defend ourselves. They have their time and place.
But only one thing makes us psychologically and spiritually stronger: Jews being Jewish, practicing Judaism with joy.
THE PLAN:
Chabad proposes something simple yet powerful: let us all go on a journey together, whereby for the next 12 months, we will collectively explore and practice another mitzvah. Each of us engaging at our own pace and level will contribute to the collective whole.
No prior education, knowledge, belief or expertise is required. We will be keeping this easy, simple and fun. All you need is curiosity and a willingness to try new things.
12 month schedule:
Key to the process is sharing your experience on this journey with others. We're all in the same boat, figuring it out and taking it one step at a time. For this reason, we have opened a WhatsApp group for anyone who wants to join this journey and share their ideas, inspiration and heartwarming moments with the group. Joining will give you the support and connection you need to sustain this effort. Reach out to [email protected] to join today!
