Arizona Chabad Breaks Ground for New Center

Last Sunday, the Jewish community of Flagstaff, Arizona, gathered for the groundbreaking of Chabad of Flagstaff’s new home. Hosting a synagogue, social hall, gourmet kosher kitchen, student and youth lounge, library, classrooms, outdoor terraces and mikvah, the center will serve the needs of the growing local Jewish community.

“This is the beginning of a new and exciting era for the Flagstaff Jewish Community,” Rabbi Dovie Shapiro, who co-directs Chabad of Flagstaff along with his wife Chaya, told the Arizona Daily Sun.

The celebratory groundbreaking event included activities and entertainment including music, bounce houses, crafts and food.
