Simchat Torah at CBI

Come Rejoice in the Torah!

Simchat Torah marks the completion of the annual cycle of weekly Torah
readings.  Each week in synagogue, we read a few chapters from the Torah,
starting with Genesis and continuing all the way to Deuteronomy. On Simchat
Torah we read the last Torah portion and then immediately read the first
chapter of Genesis, reminding us that the Torah is a circle and never ends.
This completion is a time of great celebration
with lots of singing and
dancing. Children are encouraged to bring their own toy or stuffed Torahs to
the Children’s Service.
