“Celebration of Jewish Life” kicks off with two November events

By Rabbi Fishel Zaklos, Chabad Naples

The “Celebration of Jewish Life” (CJL) program, hosted by Chabad of Naples, brings a showcase of Jewish presenters to Naples to entertain, enrich and empower community members. It provides opportunities to come together for cultural and social experiences, and to explore the richness and diversity of Jewish life.

Join us in November for these two exciting events that begin at 7 p.m. at Chabad, 1789 Mandarin Road, Naples:

Monday, Nov. 6 – Six13

This six-man a cappella vocal band is anchored by a strong Jewish identity, fueled by soulful harmonies and a full-band-like sound. The New York City-based group is an international phenomenon. Six13 videos have been viewed over 20 million times. Enjoy Jewish favorites you grew up with intermingled with clever parodies of today’s hits and catchy Six13 originals. There’s an option to meet the guys up close and personal and enjoy one or two songs during a VIP cocktail reception prior to the event.

Tuesday, Nov. 14 –Rabbi Joseph Telushkin

Many locals will remember Rabbi Telushkin’s People of the Book presentation about his book “Rebbe.” His presentation at the CJL will be a timely one as he discusses the concepts in his revised book, “Words that Hurt, Words that Heal: How the Words You Choose Shape Your Destiny.” With warmth and rich anecdotes, Rabbi Telushkin’s presentation can help shape your personal relationships and elevate your communications.
