Chabad GW traditionally hosts a weekly Friday Shabbat in its townhouse near Washington Circle during the academic year. This past Friday, Chabad GW hosted a Mega Shabbat on the first floor of the University Student Center. Students, faculty, staff, neighbors, alumni, friends and family gathered for what organizers described as one of the largest gatherings to celebrate Shabbat together on the George Washington University campus.  The gathering was filled with singing, discussions, prayer, conversation and food.
