About
Forty seven years ago, Rabbi Joseph Gopin and his wife Miriam moved from Amherst, Massachusetts to Hartford, Connecticut. They set up shop in a small West Hartford apartment, where all were welcome to come for learning, counseling or a true Shabbat or Yom Tov experience.

Join us, learn with us, grow with us.
Judaism done joyfully.
