Simchas Torah (October 7th) 2023 @JewBC Vancouver!
Description
Thank You Hashem! Thank you Rebbe! Join us for an amazing trip to the University of British Columbia (UBC) in Vancouver, where we were invited by Chabad on Campus (aka JewBC 😉) for Shemini Atzeres and Simchas Torah of 2023! From energetic dancing and shaking Lulav on campus to tabling, facilitating Jewish pride events, and joining in the joyous hakafot — it was a whirlwind of warmth, unity, and pure simcha (joy)! We soaked in the true Pacific Northwest vibes (rain blessings included 🌧️) and felt so welcomed by the incredible energy and hospitality of the UBC Jewish community. Being invited to share in their celebrations was truly heartwarming. Amid the profound heartbreak and confusion from the devastating news out of the holy land on that very Simchas Torah (October 7, 2023), we responded the only way we know how: by doubling down on acts of goodness, kindness, and pride. In times of darkness, light shines brightest through achdus (unity) and mitzvos. A huge thank you to the Loeub family and students who made this experience unforgettable. Am Yisrael Chai!
