Chabad of Mendham & Chester was launched in early 2023 by Rabbi Ari and Sarah Herson, along with their two children, Shmuel and Hinda. Their mission is simple: to make Jewish life feel a little more local, a lot more meaningful, and always welcoming.

We’re here for the holidays, the Shabbats, the deep questions, the lighthearted moments, the challah baking, and the random “just wanted to chat” texts.

Whether you’re curious, connected, or somewhere in between, you belong here. Got a question, want to meet up, or just in the mood for a good challah recipe? Reach out. We’d love to connect.
