COMMITTEES

The committee programs at Oryah Seminary, that happen Dailey, weekly, and monthly, are a vibrant part of the seminary experience, designed to engage every student in meaningful and enjoyable activities that bring the spirit of Ruchniyus to life. These programs not only enhance the girls' spiritual growth but also foster a sense of community, creativity, and personal investment in their year at seminary.

FARBRENGENS Thursday night weekly farbrengens at Oryah Seminary are a cherished tradition that bring students together for an evening of inspiration, connection, and deep learning. Typically, these gatherings feature a variety of speakers—often guest lecturers, faculty members, or community leaders—who address spiritual and personal growth from a Chabad perspective.

CHESSED Oryah Seminary’s weekly Chesed program, held every Wednesday, is a cornerstone of the seminary's commitment to fostering compassion, community service, and personal growth in its students. The program is designed to give students an opportunity to engage in hands-on acts of kindness and charitable work, which are central values in the Chabad philosophy.
