Celebrate Shavuot and Graduation together at Chabad McGill! All student graduates and their families are warmly invited to join us for a meaningful holiday celebration, including the reading of the Ten Commandments, a festive dairy meal, and a special time for one and all. Let’s mark this unforgettable weekend with exhilaration, inspiration, and cheesecake!
What is Shavuot?
Shavuot marks the date when G‑d gave the Torah to the Jewish people at Mount Sinai more than 3,300 years ago. It comes after 49 days of eager counting, as we prepared ourselves for this special day. It is celebrated by lighting candles, staying up all night to learn Torah, hearing the reading of the Ten Commandments in synagogue, feasting on dairy foods and more.
