Chabad Jewish Community Center

There is no mystery to our philosophy: For over two centuries Chabad-Lubavitch has translated deeply rooted Jewish concepts into a practical foundation of life. Under the leadership of the Rebbe, of righteous memory, Chabad grew into the world’s largest Jewish educational outreach program. Yet our philosophy remains surprisingly simple: Love every Jew. Reach out to help every Jew. We open our arms and our hearts to all, regardless of background or affiliation. We’re innovators who believe in people. So we continually seek new ways to interest Jews in Judaism. You won’t find us only talking about concepts; we bring them to life. Chabad is not a membership organization: For anyone searching to take another step on his or her spiritual journey, we offer innovative educational programs in all areas of Jewish life. For the one who feels he or she has no Jewish background at all, we are here to show that in truth every Jew is the rightful heir to a heritage that is immensely rich with purpose and meaning. While Chabad is bound in its beliefs and aspirations, each center is an independent entity and is financially self-supporting.

The Shul at Chabad of Rockford is a popular center for Jews of all backgrounds who want to learn more about their Jewish roots. Chabad is located in the heart of Rockford.

Outside of the Synagogue, Chabad offers a wide variety of educational and spiritual opportunities, including Torah classes and lectures, Jewish holiday events, 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.
