Hebrew School Opens in Flatbush

Chabad of Flatbush in conjuction with Bris Avrohom, have established a new Sunday School for children of the community, primarily from the Former Soviet Union.

This school will provide them with the opportunity to study the hebrew language and learn about their Jewish heritage in an exciting and interactive fashion. The students will also have a chance to experience the Mitzvot in a hands-on way, learning that Torah is a way of life and not just a book of rules. The boys will learn how to put on Tzitzit, the girls will learn how to light the Shabbat candles and the Jewish holidays will be an exciting time of year for the children to look forward to. There will also be a focus on the future redemption, with the children learning songs about the coming of Moshiach and the rebuilding of the Bais Hamikdash.
