Malloy signed an official state proclamation this week dedicating Friday as a Day of Goodness and Kindness. Friday marks the 18th anniversary of the death of Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson, a leader of the Chabad movement in Orthodox Judaism.
The proclamation states how a central tenet of Schneerson’s teaching is that every single positive act, no matter how small, “contributes to a better, more perfect world.”
There are 23 full-time Chabad Houses, a type of Jewish community center, throughout Connecticut.
This is a much more favorable article than the one previously published.
very appropro.ty governor!
The ChaBaD will be really excited and proud. I am not ChaBaD, so I will just do acts of kindness for Hashem instead. Thanks.
The work of Rav Gopin should be commended. Chabad has an amazing presence in Connecticut.
Rabbi Deren, a shliach in Connecticut, lives in the house that Governor Malloy grew up in.
And #3; that’s fine. As long as you do good deeds, everyone is happy.
