city. Previously, he served as head Rabbi and educational director of two
synagogues in Buenos Aires. An Argentine native, Rabbi Bialer earned his
bachelor’s degree in sociology at the University of Buenos Aires, and his
rabbinical ordination from the SeminarioRabinicoLatinoamericano. He has also
spent time in Israel. Rabbi Bialer writes: “I believe in a Judaism that
inspires people. We do that by developing institutions that create
opportunities for transformative learning, dynamic prayer, and meaningful
engagement so everyone can discover his or her own path. We are stronger
when we embrace a diverse and pluralistic community that puts our deepest
values into action.” Rabbi Bialer serves on the board of directors of the
International Raoul Wallenberg Foundation. He writes and speaks frequently
about Jewish spirituality in contemporary life. He is married with two
children, and is comfortable in English, Spanish, Portuguese, and Hebrew

Join us to screen the documentary about Ruth Gruber, Ahead of Time: The
Extraordinary Journey of Ruth Gruber. Now in her late 90’s, Brooklyn-born
Ruth still has that same sharp intellect and moxie that propelled her to
become the world's youngest PhD at age 20. At age 24, she became a New York
Herald Tribune reporter and photographer, and the same year was the first
journalist to enter the Soviet Arctic. A trusted member of the Roosevelt
Administration during WWII, she was given a dangerous secret mission. A
feminist before feminism, Ruth was never just an observer, she was a
participant in the making of history. Ruth covered the turbulent Middle East
throughout the 1940's, and the film combines verité footage of Ruth
traveling back to Israel, with interviews and archival material.

Our programs are open to all CBI members and the general community.

By all means, bring friends!

Contact Lois Dyer at 973-533-1809 for details and to place your lunch order.

The cost is $10 for Adult Forum members & partners // $12 for community
participants

Join us in the Chapel for our inspirational Hebrew chant and song circle
with musical accompaniment.This special edition of the chanting circle is
going south of the border – the Ashkenazi border, that is! We will be
learning centuries-old melodies from Spain, Portugal and the Sephardic
Diaspora along with melodies from Iraq, Persia, Yemen, and India.  Some are
done in a traditional call-and-response style, while others will be done as
a nigun, or put to words you may know.

The intention of chanting is to awaken the divine in our hearts. It can
soothe the mind and at the very least is simply fun to do!  No prior
knowledge of Hebrew or singing ability necessary
only a willingness to join
in spiritual community.
