While this year's JCC Maccabi Games in Houston brought together Jewish athletes from all over the country, the Chabad-Lubavitch booth at “Hang-time” took them to Israel in front of a backdrop of the Kotel by letting the boys put of tefillin many of them for the first time, while girls got a “Friday light” kit to light Shabbat candles with a neat charm necklace for when they get home. A hands-on Living Legacy Torah Factory was also provided.
