With headquarters in Hillside NJ, Bris Avrohom is open to all Jews from any walk of life and all levels of Jewish knowledge. We especially cater to Russian Jews with our Russian/English speaking Rabbis, and unique understanding and approach to Jews from the former soviet union. We will help you find your comfort level. Whether it is a holiday gathering, education for children or spiritual advice, your source is the Bris Avrohom Center.

 

Bris Avrohom is the name of our organization, so chosen by the Lubavitcher Rebbe in 1979 upon it's founding by Rabbi Kanelsky, because it means "The Covenant of Abraham". Our first forefather was the first Jew commanded by G-d to have a bris.

 

Bris Avrohom has touched the lives of thousands of people by enriching their outlook towards Yiddishkeit and by acquainting them with their 3,300-year-young Jewish heritage and traditions.  Through providing Brissim, Bar/Bat mitzvahs, weddings and education for young and old, we are ensuring Jewish vibrancy and continuity.
