The
memorable evening included an open bar, delicious food, a holiday musical
ensemble, menorah lighting and awards ceremony.

Chabad North Haven in The Hamptons was just launched this past summer
by Rabbi
Berel Lerman and his wife Brocha Lerman. It’s the
newest Chabad branch in the Hamptons, in addition to the other centers: Chabad of The Hamptons in East Hampton,
Chabad of Southampton and Chabad of Watermill.
Chabad
is the fastest growing and largest Jewish organization in the world today. The
goal of Chabad North Haven is to create an environment where there are no
labels and everyone is free to express their “Jewishness” and spirituality.
Through their programming they offer a very relevant and meaningful experience
to adult and children audiences alike.
In
addition, they also offer Spirituality For All, which is an educational
organization that holds workshops and classes teaching mystical Kabbalah. Their
programming both in person and online empowers people to reach within their
core and shine in all areas of their lives.
