An intimate 3 hour tour (plan on more time as lunch follows) where Rabbi Epstein shares everything he knows about the Lubovitch sect. He is open, thoughtful, honest and truly hopes to inform. The thick veil held by this group is turned to gauze as he enlightens in a thoughtful way. We visited an eastern European style synagogue and observed the daily rituals of the men viewed from the women’s concealed viewing area. We visited a Mikvah (ritual cleansing bath) and learned of it’s importance to the religion. Then we visited the small teffillin workshop and learned about the various animal parts utilized with a kosher bent. Absolutely loved it, the time whizzed by. If you are at all interested in learning about a different culture this was A+. A 30 min easy subway ride from mid-town to Crown Heights B’klyn. (Get of the subway and you are jarred from the sophistication of Manhattan to the rich culture of a distinct neighborhood of African Americans and Jews.) Lunch is not to be missed as it’s a casual sit down with the ever garrulous rabbi in a small Halel eatery serving fresh felafel. Any questions you may have forgotten during the tour will be remembered.

Beryl Epstien did such a wonderful job. He took us to the key places for everyone- no matter their back round or knowledge. Very profound and enjoyable for all walks of life. The lunch was great too
