Chabad Jewish Center of Naperville

Chabad of Naperville is founded on the principle that while Jews embrace many levels of observance in their personal lives, there should be a place for all Jews where there are no labels or affiliations. We have successfully partnered with hundreds of families from a variety of backgrounds, offering Jewish educational programming in an accepting and innovative setting where all feel welcome. The Rabbi, his wife, and the entire staff work tirelessly to create children's programs, adult education, classes, seminars, Shabbat programs, womens’ gatherings and more. Our goal is to create a positive Jewish experience for everyone as they strengthen their ties to the Jewish community.

Chabad of Naperville is a place where every Jewish person is welcome - regardless of affiliation or level of knowledge. Our sole purpose is to create a warm welcoming environment to explore and experience Judaism in a non-judgmental and inviting atmosphere. Join us- and enjoy!

Rabbi Mendy Goldstein was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York and spent his high school years in a Yeshivah in Brunoy, France. After returning to New York to study for another two years, he spent a year in Budapest, Hungary completing an internship in outreach work. At the age of 22, Rabbi Goldstein graduated and received his Rabbinical ordination from the Central Lubavitch Yeshiva in Brooklyn. Rabbi Mendy met his wife, Alta, in California and they married in May 2004. They are the proud parents of 6 children: Yisroel, Mussya, Eli, Moishy, Ahron and Levi.

Rabbi Mendy & Alta Goldstein moved to Naperville in December 2005 to establish the Chabad Jewish Center of Naperville, which provides social and religious programming for the Jewish community.
