Our Shabbat in Los Angeles
was spent at the Russian-Chabad
Center. We were all embraced by
the rabbi and his congregation. For
Rodion Kremen, this Shabbat was
a very special experience. "I
enjoyed Shabbat at the Russian
Chabad Center. It reminded me of
the stories my grandpa told me
about Jewish life in Russia."
Sadly, this special Shabbat experi-
ence had to come to an end and
with it, our cross-country trip. We
returned to Norfolk Sunday morn-
ing, tired but excited, ready to share
our experiences with our families
and friends.
We are very proud of our eighth
grade students. They lived and
practiced Jewish life on a daily
basis, performing the mitzvot and
rituals that they were taught at the

in a Jewish setting.
