"Three years ago in South Africa, on the Thursday evening before the Shabbat of the inaugural Shabbos Project, around 3,000 women united in the streets of Johannesburg to prepare challah dough together," the event's description says. "It was a truly momentous occasion – spine-tingling for all those who were there."

Last year in honor of the inaugural International Shabbos Project, 250 local woman joined the thousands and thousands of women preparing Challah dough together across the globe.

The Challah Bake transcended all differences in ideology, outlook and affiliation, and brought Jewish woman together in a deeply meaningful way.
