Chabad Jewish Center of Longmont

Chabad of Longmont is one of Colorado's most unorthodox Orthodox Synagogues - a popular center for Jews of all backgrounds who want to learn more about their Jewish roots. Chabad offers a wide variety of educational and spiritual opportunities, including Torah classes and lectures, Shabbaton dinners, and an array of family and social activities. Traditional Jewish values are brought to life in a joyous, non-judgmental atmosphere.

Chabad serves all segments of the Jewish community. Everyone is welcome regardless of their personal level of religious observance. The philosophy is in keeping with the Chabad-Lubavitch approach of joy, scholarship and unconditional acceptance and love for every Jew.

Chabad is under the spiritual guidance of Rabbi Yakov Borenstein , a warm, caring and energetic individual. The rabbi's approach is that Torah must be presented and experienced in a relevant context and made available to each individual on their own level. Rabbi Borenstein and his wife Shaina are emissaries of the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson .

The services are traditional, and are conducted in a joyous, casual atmosphere. Children are included and most welcome. Many of those who attend cannot read Hebrew, yet everyone feels at home. The prayer book is bi-lingual and various English readings are included in the service. Song and commentary add meaning and participation to the prayers.
