We have such a great power to be better Jews and better people when we come together. At the Chicago Moishe House, we strive to create a community of young Jews who want to have fun, make new friends, and work together on our community’s problems. So far, we have had events that ranged from happy hours to speaking with the Jewish Council on Urban Affairs about economic development in one of Chicago's most depressed and blighted neighborhoods. We love bonding with others to make a stronger, fairer Chicago.
This is what we hope to continue in the coming months and years. Chicago, like so many other cities around the world, has a lot of energy, Jewish faith, and potential for further unity. We see the Moishe House as a vehicle for furthering these aims. Our ideal Jewish Community is one where people’s passions and love of Judaism as a religion, culture, and history are combined to make a difference in the city. There is a great belief in togetherness in Judaism, and knowledge that, with the help of others, we can make our community a better place to live.
