Strengthening Ourselves Through Hazak.
HAZAK, which means ”strength” in Hebrew, is the award-winning nationwide synagogue program for people ages 60+, that was created by the United Synagogue of Conservative Judaism. Ohav is in the process of starting a HAZAK chapter, which will draw upon of the wisdom, experience, and leadership talents of this vital demographic of our community.
