The Chabad House of Clube Hebraica in São Paulo, Brazil, celebrated a historic Hachnassat Sefer Torah recently, marking the dedication of a second Torah scroll donated to the Chabad House. This special event was made possible by the generous donation from the Epstein – Dorembus families, further strengthening the connection between the Jewish community and their spiritual heritage.
Clube Hebraica, the largest Jewish Community Center (JCC) in the world with over 20,000 members, was filled with joy and celebration as the new Sefer Torah was welcomed with music, dancing, and heartfelt gratitude.
Under the leadership of Rabbi Berale Schildkraut and Rebbetzin Mussy Schildkraut (née Alpern), Chabad da Casa offers a wide range of activities, including daily minyanim, Torah classes for women and men, bar mitzvah lessons, and festive celebrations for all Jewish holidays. The Chabad House also taps into the vibrant sports culture at Clube Hebraica, connecting with Jewish members after tennis classes and even engaging women following their dance lessons.
In addition to these ongoing activities, Chabad da Casa is also known for its dynamic holiday celebrations. Their Sukkot dinner, which quickly sold out, is another example of how the Chabad House run by the Schildkrauts is making the Jewish life thrive in Clube Hebraica.
