At its heart, Chabad has always stood for unity, kindness, and endurance.
As we celebrate the opening of the Finkelstein Chabad Jewish Centre after seven years of hard work, we honour the strength and resilience of Ottawa’s Jewish community.
A special day with the people we love!

President Trump @realDonaldTrump has proclaimed today, April 9 — the Rebbe's birthday — to be Education and Sharing Day, U.S.A., honoring the Rebbe's lasting impact on the Jewish community and the world.
“This Education and Sharing Day, U.S.A, we draw inspiration from the life, legacy, and blessed memory of Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, the Lubavitcher Rebbe and leader of the Chabad-Lubavitch community, whose Hebrew birthday corresponds to this day,” the proclamation reads. “He embarked on a global campaign of spiritual outreach to bring the light of faith and Yiddishkeit to countless members of the Jewish community.”
Referencing Chabad-Lubavitch Headquarters, the Presidential proclamation continues:
“From 770 Eastern Parkway in Crown Heights, the modest home that continues to serve as Chabad headquarters, he reinvigorated the Chabad-Lubavitch movement and led a religious revival — one that would touch all four corners of the globe. Today, Chabad and its shluchim, emissaries dedicated to spreading Jewish awareness, education, and kindness in communities around the world, still serve as beacons of the Rebbe’s teachings and boundless love for all humanity.”
The President @POTUS closed by encouraging everyone to take the day’s message to heart.
“The First Lady and I encourage all Americans to reflect upon the Rebbe’s teachings. His inestimable dedication and unwavering example have become woven into the very fabric of our Nation and its character. His memory remains a blessing to the world.”
✨ Thousands of Jewish Women Pray for the Hostages.
