Founded in 1923, Congregation B’nai Israel is a traditional Conservative egalitarian congregation. We welcome members and visitors alike and make it easy to participate in Jewish life. We know each other and provide support in times of celebration and grief. We share the joys of Jewish worship and learning with family, friends and community. From generation to generation, CBI leaves no one behind.
Congregation B’nai Israel welcomes interfaith & LGBT families.
Engage “Side by Side at CBI" by exploring our website.
Disconnect from the fast pace of life and be together. #sidebysideatcbi

Decisions made by the Board of Trustees in regard to the operations of Congregation B'nai Israel during this pandemic are rooted in concern for the health and safety of our community and our Jewish value of pikuach nefesh, the saving of a life, which is a commandment transcending virtually all others.
