New Year of Chasidism

Today, 19 Kislev on the Jewish calendar marks the New Year of Chasidism

The New Year of Chasidism is a special day when we remember the spiritual awakening that began in 1730, thanks to the teachings of the Baal Shem Tov, the founder of the Chasidic movement

This event has a deep significance for Ukraine as well, for it was the Ukrainian land that became the cradle of Hasidism. Medzhibozh, Uman, Berdychiv, Nizhyn and many other Ukrainian cities are symbols of spirituality that attract pilgrims from all over the world!

Chassidism reminds us of the importance of joy, unity and faith even in the most difficult times. This is very relevant today as Ukraine and Israel struggle for their Independence and freedom
