Members of the Chabad community of Toronto celebrated a siyum on hilchos Shabbos after studying them as part of the Semichas Chaver Chabad program.
In a joint program by Beis Yosef Anshei NY Lubavitch and Kolel Erev Lubavitch, men, women, and children were invited to attend an in-depth learning session led by Rabbi Nissan Dovid Dubov.
The class was a part of the global Semichas Chaver Program or SCP, started by Rabbi Elyada Goldwicht to teach in-depth halacha classes to Baaleh Batim. The program currently boasts over 120 locations, with over 2,000 weekly talmidim. The curriculum is a text-based study of the background and underlying principles of the halacha. It starts with the Gemara and Shulchan Aruch, and follows the chain of halacha all the way to the contemporary Poskim and modern issues.
This particular shiur addressed the mastering of the positive mitzvos of Shabbos which were learned by the SCP students over the past half of the year.
The program included addresses by magidei shiurim; Rabbi Avrohom Jacks and Rabbi Levi Zaltzman. Certificates were given out to those who completed the course as well.
