CBI Chanting Circle

Come to the Chapel Sunday May 18, at 5:00 p.m., for an hour of inspirational
Hebrew chant with musical accompaniment.

In Kabbalah there is a practice of using the Omer as a time of personal and
spiritual renewal.  

Our chants this month will reflect this practice.

Be prepared to sing your heart open and let your spirit soar!  

No prior knowledge of Hebrew necessary.only a willingness to explore
spiritual community.

It is not necessary to come to every game.but the more the better!

 

Please contact Craig Rothman at Craig.Rothman at cardinalhealth.com
