Winter Vacation

Hama'aseh Hu Haikar | December 31, 2025

Introduction

Winter Vacation coincides with the non-Jewish festive season. Jewish students in non-Jewish public schools find themselves free from their studies and open to the prevalent influences. The Rebbe suggests turning this factor to the benefit of Jewry, by reaching out to these students.

Teach Them Torah

We should utilize the winter vacation by reaching out to Jewish children who study in Public Schools and are exposed to the non-Jewish environment. We should positively influence them by drawing them into a Jewish environment and enrolling them in Jewish schools; we should teach them Torah and matters of general Judaism, and give them a kosher education founded on pure holiness.

Enroll in Yeshivah

Clearly, we should work on influencing parents to enroll their children – immediately – in an institution where they will receive a fully sanctified education.
