The Individual And The Community
I have always believe in Congregational prayers. I feel that that is where our G-d dwells because He rejoices in seeing His children come together to praise him and glorify His Holy Name, Blessed be He.

I am grateful for your beautiful teachings Rabbi Gurkow. This lesson has been indeed a blessing for me.

New outlook on Minyans
Thank you very much Rabbi Gurkow. This video taught me why praying in a minyan is so important, and it will only reaffirm my commitment to try and make it to a minyan whenever I can.

Thank you Chabad, for the amazing educational and inspirational videos and classes, available online.

My suggestions is having the ability to include subtitles in different languages for those who don't understand English or Hebrew.

This class totally changed
This class totally changed my attitude toward congregational prayer. I am very much looking forward to praying with our community at Beis Chabad Japan on Rosh HaShana and Yom Kippur. Thank you.
