Chabad of Dallasis under the spiritual guidance of Rabbi Mendel Dubrawsky, one of the senior educators in Dallas who believes the Torah must be experienced in the context of a modern, technologically advanced world. His approach is encouraged through sermons and discussions known for their dynamic philosophical positions and Jewish mystical content.
Chabad of Dallas is based on the ideology of Chabad Lubavitch, which has at its foundation based on the encompassing mitzvah “to love every Jew as one loves himself” and to permeate that love with Acts of Kindness, Mitzvas, Torah Study and Prayer. The Shul is a place where people want to go – not have to go; where you enjoy being – not where you look forward to leaving. A home away from home, a gathering place where unity is paramount.
