Jewish Bearcat of the Week
Featuring Abby Lopchinsky

Where are you from?  Where did you go to high school?
I am from Teaneck NJ and I went to Frisch.

What do you love about Jewish life on campus?
I love the familial feeling of Jewish life on campus and how seeing another Jew in your class can make a lecture hall feel significantly smaller and more comfortable.

Do you have any siblings? 
I have two younger brothers. 

What is your favorite Jewish food?  
My favorite Jewish food is fresh, warm vanilla rugelach. In my opinion it wins but I can respect chocolate marzipan.

What is your favorite food?
I love bagels. Anthony from KK knows that I don’t go a day without one and being the legend that he is preps it for me before I even get the chance to ask.

If you were a breakfast cereal, which one would you be and why?
If I were a breakfast cereal I would be Trix because the fun shapes and colors just start off your day on the right foot.

What's your dream job?
My dream job is to be a Nurse Practitioner.

What is your favorite Jewish childhood memory?
I have a distinct memory from being about 5 or 6 when my brother and I went under my dad’s tallis during birkat cohanim and could not stop giggling at how silly it felt.

What is your favorite Chabad experience? 
Daily mincha/maariv! Such good vibes!

What's your favorite lockdown experience?
My favorite lockdown experience was family paint night!

SOUL COFFEE
Rabbi Tzvi Freeman

We, the Jewish people, are a single person with many millions of faces, a single soul breathing within a multitude of diverse bodies.

In each one of us is found all of Israel, and what any one does immediately reverberates through all the rest.

If one should fall, all of us stumble.
When one does a mitzvah, all of us participate.
If one is suffering, all of us share that pain.
When one rejoices, all of us dance and sing.

None of us can say to the other, “You go your way and I will go mine.”

Wherever you go, you take some of me there with you, and where I go, you too will come along.
