welcome

Welcome to CAY!

Founded in 2011 by Rabbi Chezzi and Sima Denebeim, Chevra Ahavas Yisroel is a grass-roots Shul in Crown Heights, created as a spiritual gathering place for all Jews, regardless of background or affiliation. Founded on the principle of Ahavas Yisroel, our Shul keeps an open attitude of love and acceptance.

We seek to galvanize the basics of Judaism in a relevant manner through joyful song-filled prayer and contemporary programming while maintaining an unwavering commitment to Halacha and the spirit of Chassidus.

Above all else, our Shul is a peoples' Shul. Entirely volunteer-run, CAY is for the people by the people. We count our true success in inspiring creativity, innovation, and leadership amongst our congregants.

Our Mission

The mission of Chevra Ahavas Yisroel is to provide a platform for joyful Jewish expression that is infused with unconditional love and wholehearted acceptance for each and every Jew, all of humankind, and all of G-D’s creations. We aim to harness the power of community to better ourselves, our neighborhood, and the world.
