About
The Mission of Chabad of Nebraska is to improve the world though education, action, and loving kindness; to help realize a moral, G-dly world in which honesty, integrity, a sense of meaning and purpose, respect, responsibility for one another, knowledge, security, and peace prevail.

We recognize the innate goodness in humankind and seek to inspire and empower all people to maximize their potential on life's journey - with joy, passion, and enthusiasm.

To accomplish that, we work with all denominations, cultures, and faiths and reach out to help rather than wait to be called upon.

Why is Torah compared to light? Because it tells us the place of each thing. Because, in truth, there is no need to change the world. Everything is here. Each thing has a place, and in that place it is good. Altogether, it is very good, a beautiful world. All that’s needed is a little light. What is light? Light doesn't add anything or take away. It only reveals the meaning and purpose of all that it shines upon. Think of your own home. In the dark, there is no way to know what belongs in your closet and what belongs in the laundry, what is ready for use and what is in need of repair....
