       The Persian Hebrew Congregation

A Synagogue that feels like home

We are a Sephardic Orthodox Congregation in Skokie, IL. Jews from numerous countries and various origins pray together in our beautiful sanctuary, celebrate chagim together, study together, enjoy kiddushim together and are always excited to welcome newcomers to our congregation.

Three Tenets of Judaism

At the Persian Hebrew Congregation, our home away from home, the three tenets of Judaism, Torah, Avodah and Ge'Meelut Chasidim (Study, Worship and Acts of Kindness) are the values that we hope to live by.

Shabbat Shalom!

___________

Our hearts and our minds are with our brothers & sisters in Eretz Yisrael.

Let’s keep on doing Mitzvot, saying Tehilim and giving Tzedaka to provide merit to help the wounded heal, the hostages to be freed and the rest of Am Yisrael to also be healed from this very traumatic experience.

On behalf of the Persian Hebrew Congregation, we would like to wish a Mazal Tov to Chillie & Dassie Dubovick on the birth of a new baby girl.

Mazal Tov also to the grandparents Rabbi & Mrs. Dubovick and to Rabbi & Mrs. Hamaoui and to the entire family.

May the parents merit to raise this new child to Torah, Chupah & Maasim Tovim.
