The Shidduch Challenge

You probably have heard many times that the Talmud compares making a shidduch to parting the Red Sea -- so you can be sure that you’re not alone if you’re feeling apprehensive about the process.

Traditionally the parents and extended family played a very active role in the shidduch process. They made the calls, did the research, followed-up and guided the process for their children.

Could you use some additional help in finding suitable suggestions, doing the research and guiding you along the way? Would you benefit better access to the traditional way of Jewish dating, which offers tremendous advantages: preserving both parties’ privacy, promoting the utmost modesty, focusing on the really important issues of marriage?  You deserve to be able to take full advantage of the shidduch system, and now you can!

The Oorah Solution

With 30 years of experience helping to build Jewish families, Oorah is in a unique position to understand the challenges you face. You are committed to a Torah life, and now, you want to find a partner with whom you can build the kind of life you envision. Oorah knows that there’s so much to you – your personality, interests, outlook on life, and your background, too – that enter into the shidduch picture. And now, through The Rebbetzins, we have created a network that addresses your shidduch needs. The Rebbetzins program is a free service for singles of Baal Teshuva background between the ages of 18 and 30.  It provides a way of connecting to reliable information about singles of compatible background and personality throughout the United States and Canada.

Why is Oorah’s Shadchan Network Called 'The Rebbetzins'?

Traditionally, the Rav and Rebbetzin of a community took on the responsibility of parent-like guidance where a situation required it.  The Rebbetzin, a wise, insightful mother figure, used her binah to look into the depths of the personalities around her and was therefore best equipped to recognize a shidduch.

An Oorah Rebbetzin is a wise, life-experienced, reliable person who actively works on behalf of one single at a time, as a parent does.  Your Rebbetzin will take the time to get to know the real you. You’ll never be just a name and a resume.

The Oorah Rebbetzin will guide you throughout the shidduch process, including seeking out a potential spouse, doing research, checking references, carefully selecting and arranging a strictly confidential shidduch and steady follow up, again and again until the you and your bashert are standing under the chuppah!

Your one-on-one connection with a caring Oorah Rebbetzin provides you with support for all your shidduch needs and gives you a strong, life-long kesher with your Rebbetzin.
