Dear Chabad Mercer Island family, Family. That’s exactly how I feel. We share in each other’s lives, celebrate each other’s joys, and look to grow together—we truly are one big family.

Dear Friend, Welcome to Chabad Mercer Island! This book is a testament to you— our dedicated supporters. Your generosity has enabled us to touch many Jewish lives, inspire untold positive feelings, and bring the authentic Jewish experience to countless Mercer Island families. There’s only one direction we’re heading: Forward. More programs, bolder initiatives, and a far greater reach. Thank you for helping us come this far. We look forward to partnering with you into the future. Warmly, Rabbi Nissan Kornfeld Co-Director, Chabad Mercer Island

I am thankful for the opportunity to open my home for Shabbat meals, and to direct the Mercer Island Bat Mitzvah club. Watching young girls learn, question and grow as they transition into mature adults is most inspirational and rewarding. Thank you for being such a special family. I hope we continue to grow together into the future. Warmly, Mushka Kornfeld Co-Director, Chabad Mercer Island

Around the Jewish year with Chabad. We all struggle with “The Challenge of Relevance”— finding modern-day meaning within an ancient tradition. Chabad Mercer Island’s holiday programs aim to bridge that gap. To bring the Judaism of the text into the real lives of real people. » » » » » » »

“Alex wrote a 'personal narrative essay' for her English class about how Judaism is starting to resonate with her since you came into our lives. She described the wonderful Shabbat at your home, and how she is now seeing how to apply Judaism’s ideas into her life! Thank you so much for the important effect you are having on her.” — Cara Williams
