About Chabad of Concord
A Jewish home in Concord
Chabad of Concord is a place to learn, celebrate, connect, and feel at home.
Led by Rabbi Berel and Mushka Kesselman, Chabad of Concord serves the Jewish community of Concord with warmth, openness, and personal care.
Whether you join us every Shabbat, come by a few times a year, are reconnecting with your Judaism, or are simply looking for a Jewish connection, there is a place for you here.
Judaism that feels personal
Jewish life should feel meaningful, accessible, and real.
Our goal is to create a place where people know each other, newcomers feel comfortable, questions are welcome, and Judaism can be explored at your own pace.
Sometimes that means joining us for Shabbat or a holiday. Sometimes it means taking a class, putting on tefillin, getting a mezuzah, celebrating a lifecycle event, or simply calling with a question.
Whatever brings you through the door, we want you to feel comfortable being here.
Come as you are
You do not need to be a member.
You do not need to know Hebrew.
You do not need to be observant.
And you do not need to fit into any particular category.
Come as you are.
At Chabad, we believe every Jew matters, every mitzvah matters, and every Jewish connection has value.
What you'll find here
