Susan Doobrow has been
teaching her kindergartners
about human feelings and rela
tions. Elaine Chernotsky, who is
a special resource teacher and a
parent of one of Susan’s stu
dents, visited with the kinder
garten children and talked to
them about special feelings. “We
really enjoyed listening to her
story and playing the feelings
bag game,” said Susan. Elaine
will be visiting with the children
on a regular basis.
Michelle Hodges has also
been progressing smoothly with
her first and second graders.
“We are involved in a serious
study of math, reading and
science,” said Michelle.
The Lubavitch Talmud Torah
students, under the direction of
Mariashi Groner, were busy
learning about Chanukah and its
many beautiful laws and cus
toms. They crafted their own
menorahs and learned the com
plete story of Chanukah. They
also practiced for the spectacular
Chanukah outdoor menorah
lighting at the Arboretum shop

New Projects Launched at Chabad House
Two new projects were estab
lished at Lubavitch of North
Carolina which have already
enhanced the many programs at
the Chabad House. Both pro
jects were initiated by the Lu-
bavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Mena-
chem M. Schneerson, on a
worldwide scale. This coincides
with his call to increase activities
in honor of the Jewish year 5750,
which has become known as the
year of miracles.
The first project is to gather
people together on Shabbat for
the purpose of the study of
Torah, this in addition to the
services held at the Chabad
House.
Every Shabbat at the Chabad
House after the morning service,
everyone gathers around for
kiddush and refreshments with
a toast of L’chaim followed with
a study session. The session is
in the beginning of the weekly
Torah portion; a verse of Torah
is learned with the famous
commentary of Rashi and also
explained according to tradi
tional Chassidic interpretation.
About every two weeks a full-
scale kiddush feast is held on
Shabbat at the Chabad House,
where traditional Shabbat foods
like “Gefilte Fish” and “Cho-
lent” are enjoyed by the partic
ipants. During the kiddush meal,
the Torah session is studied and
peppered with interesting Chas
sidic tales.
The second project involves
all the teachers and children at
Lubavitch schools for a special
Tzedakah undertaking. Every
Friday Rabbi Yossi Groner,
director of Lubavitch of North
Carolina, distributes “coins for
charity” to all children and
teachers who in turn drop the
coins into a large “Pushke”
(charity box) which is later
distributed to many worthy
causes.
The idea is that the employer
or director of an organization,
institution or company partici
pates in a worthy cause on a
weekly basis with his or her
employees. What’s more, this
kind of participation initiates the
student and all the participants
to involve themselves with good
charitable activities.
The children eagerly look
forward to this project each
Friday as they and their teachers
fulfill this wonderful mitzvah.
