Harford Chabad offers or can direct you to any and all Jewish services
Hospital Visitation
At Chabad we realize how frightening, overwhelming or simply lonesome being in the hospital can be, and that’s why we put such emphasis on visiting people in the hospital and bringing them a gift package with goodies, that show them we care. Chabad of Aliso Viejo and its volunteers have visited numerous hospitals and senior homes bringing joy to many patients. Most importantly the patient is given the message that they are not alone.

Making the Holidays So Much Brighter
Harford Chabad visits senior living centers and various community shelters and hospitals where we run ocasional Holiday programs consisting of entertainment and arts and crafts. Additionally, we are in touch with organazations that help children and women, from abused and neglected homes, sending them beautiful holiday gifts brimming with warmth and love. Chabad has also taken the initiative of "adopting" some of these families. The goal of this project is to bring gifts, meals and smiles to thousands of needy children and families regardless of their race, color or ethnicity.

Tefillin Inspection
Wrapped around our arms in those square black boxes, it’s easy to forget how holy Tefillin are. Containing the name of Hashem, each time we wrap ourselves in those black straps we are forging a bond with our Creator. Like Mezuzot, Tefillin contain holy parchments that need to be checked from time to time to ensure they are fit for use.
