LAKE HAVASU CITY – Chabad of Lake Havasu is welcoming the community to celebrate Hanukkah. Founded in 2022 by Rabbi Mendel and Itta Super, their goal is to give a traditional Jewish history and customs to the Jewish people of Lake Havasu as well as the visitors that come to the town throughout the year.
They aim to serve those without access to the Jewish community. There are no fees associated when joining the synagogue.
Chabad offers many programs to benefit anyone interested, such as adult education, community service, and holiday celebrations. Hanukkah is a celebration that takes place for eight days and nights.
It is a festival honored by lighting of candles of a candelabrum which is most popularly known as the menorah. If you are someone in need of candles, Chabad is offering free ones which can be picked up at Chabad of Lake Havasu located at 3188 Silver Bell Dr.
Or by contacting Rabbi Mendel at 928- 706-6602. This was Chabad’s second Hanukkah Celebration Under the London Bridge. The community witnessed the lighting of the nine foot tall menorah.
Holiday foods were available along with a festive atmosphere. The first night of Hanukkah in Lake Havasu was on Thursday, December 7 at the London Bridge Stage.
Chabad’s Light Over Darkness theme is a wish that Chabad hopes to spread to everyone during this holiday season. Learn more about Chabad of Lake Havasu by visiting Chabad of Lake Havasu City (chabadhavasu.org)
