Chabad of South Huntington Beach was established by Rabbi Yossi and Yiska Berkowitz in 2005. Our aim is to give meaning, share joy and add spirituality to the every day. Our dream is to teach these values in a warm and nurturing environment where people can grow together, enjoying life and Judaism simultaneously.
We invite you to explore our site and join in our many programs, celebrations, and events. You will find a calendar packed with something for everyone - parents, children, youth and adults.
As the sun made to set, a deep sleep fell upon Abra[ha]m; and, lo, a horror of great darkness fell upon him. And [G‑d] said to Abram: “Know surely that your descendents shall be strangers in a land that is not theirs, and they will be enslaved to them, and they will afflict them . . . [but] afterwards they will come out with great wealth . . .”
From the Torah’s description of the “Covenant Between the Pieces,” Genesis 15:12–14
