Even though many of the guests didn’t know what the term “Shabbaton” means, after this weekend, they will cherish their memories of the magnificent Shabbos festivities and the educational, cultural and religious programs, which gave a unique opportunity for people to immerse in the wide sea of interesting and useful information about Jewish traditions, education and upbringing.
The Shabbaton guests were presented with over 70 lectures and workshops covering a broad variety of topics. They had a chance to enjoy excellent concerts, entertaining programs, meet community leaders and Shluchim, talk to them and exchange opinions. Moreover, there was a special program for young singles, allowing them the opportunity to meet their significant other.
Many weddings came about as a result of the singles program at the Shabbaton, and it was beautiful to see how a young couple – who had met as singles at the first Shabbaton six years ago – came with their child to the 6th Shabbaton this year.
No surprise that many have already asked: “When is the next Shabbaton?”
