Sukkah on a bike

With the Delta variant still not allowing so many to join the holiday celebrations, the Majeskys of Chabad North Orlando found an innovative and fun way to bring Sukkot to them.

Rabbi Yanky and Chanshy Majesky and their children, rode their "Sukkah on a Bike '' from door to door giving community members the chance to be in a sukkah and to do the mitzvah of Lulav and Esrog. 

"I was looking out the window and thought I was dreaming," said Jerry B. "There was a sukkah pulling into my driveway."

For some friends, the highlight was dancing and singing with the children. "Sorry Rabbi, I love you a lot ... but seeing the kids come to my door is what really made my holiday," said Aviva B. 

Chanshy Majesky explained "The Rebbe taught us that everything in Hashem's world can and should be used for something meaningful in addition to our own pleasure and this was a great way to use our bike for a mitzvah."

Rabbi added with a smile "with all the mitzvah calories we brought meaning to during the holiday meals ... it was certainly a good idea to have a mitzvah bike ride!"
