(Courtesy of Chabad of Teaneck) Over 200 people turned out to celebrate the 19th of Kislev “Rosh Hashanah of Chassidus” celebration sponsored by Friends of Lubavitch of Bergen County. Rabbi Ephraim Simon spoke about the day’s history, marking the release of the Alter Rebbe from Czarist prison. Dan Rubinoff finished the last few lines of Shas which was the culmination of the entire community dividing up and learning portions of the Talmud so that in a massive communal group effort the entire shas was completed.

Special thanks to Shimon Kronenberg and Heichal HaTorah for their assistance in the beautiful event. The event had live music, a full dinner and an inspiring guest speaker, Rabbi Naftali Silberberg of chabad.org.
