What is Chabad of Wallingford?
What is Chabad?
Well, that depends on you.

For many, Chabad is a delicious Shabbat dinner shared with friends, or a way to celebrate the Jewish holidays together. For others, it’s a friend and a listening ear, or a place to discover the tremendous depth and beauty of Judaism through engaging classes and meaningful conversations.
