Chabad Jewish Centre of Milton Keynes

Chabad House

Chabad House in Milton Keynes, England, led by Rabbi Yitzchak Lew.

From a small synagogue in Brooklyn, New York in the winter of 1951, the Lubavitcher Rebbe transformed a small Chassidic dynasty of 200 years into the largest Jewish outreach organization in the world. Today, Chabad-Lubavitch has 3,500 centres across the globe.

Chabad is known for it’s non-judgmental, all are welcome style, and making ancient, traditional & authentic Judaism accessible and meaningful, in a modern and fast-paced world.

Chabad of Milton Keynes reaches out and welcomes every Jew, offering material and spiritual assistance to all. With the unconditional love and acceptance for which Chabad is famous, every Jew can find a sympathetic ear and helping hand, and answers to any questions they may have about Jewish life and practice. Founded in 2021, our mission was inspired by the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson, whose love for every Jew was legendary.

We live in turbulent times for the Jewish community. Our community faces both social and spiritual challenges. Chabad’s many programs and services strive to meet these challenges and ensure Jewish continuity by providing opportunities for every Jew to participate in Jewish life – to ask questions, to learn, to find joy and discover their heritage, and/or to seek guidance or assistance.
