Yes, really. We can always find something for which we are grateful - even in these times. May Gd continue to grant us life and sustain us through these times as we create a new learning space together: students, parents, and teachers. As we create our online community, we will stretch our imaginations about what our Jewish world at CBI looks like right now.

Guess Who's Coming to Shabbas? Dinner
Friday, Jul 17th (All day)
Guess Who's Coming to Shabbas Dinners have two goals: to strengthen the synagogue community and to help families create meaningful memories for themselves and their children. Host families invite others for Shabbat dinner, and in subsequent months, those guests also become hosts. The program's goal is engagement - we want more people to experience the joyousness of being together on Shabbat. We’re strengthening Jewish communities one Shabbat dinner at a time. To volunteer as a host, contact the CBI office.
