Screening of Green Book

Thursday, April 4

Lunch begins at 12:30 p.m. The program begins at 1:00 p.m.

(Vigo Mortensen), a bouncer from an Italian- American neighborhood in the
Bronx, is hired to drive Dr. Don Shirley (Mahershala Ali), a world-class
Black pianist, on a concert tour from Manhattan to the Deep South, they must
rely on the Green Book to guide them to the few establishments that were
then safe for African-Americans.  Confronted with racism, danger as well as
unexpected humanity and humor, they were forced to set aside their
differences and learned to thrive and survive on their journey of a
lifetime. Please come to see this Best Picture Academy Award winning film.

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

CBI Chanting Circle

The Song of Songs in Song!

Sunday April 14 at 5:00 p.m.

Join us in the Chapel for our annual CBI Song of Songs themed Hebrew chant
and song circle with musical accompaniment. In preparation for Passover when
it is read in the synagogue, we will be exploring selected passages from the
Song of Songs set to beautiful, compelling, yet easy to sing melodies. There
are more musical settings for the Shir than any other Biblical text.  Come
find out why!

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

Holocaust Remembrance Program

Tuesday, April 30 at 8:15 p.m.

in the Sanctuary

Our synagogue remembers ... a Holocaust commemoration program in conjunction
with Voices of the Generations. Julie Kohner has been a Jewish educator for
over thirty years, with a master’s degree in educational counseling. After
Julie’s mother, Hanna, a Holocaust survivor, passed away in 1990, Julie
began to create educational programs to honor the victims and survivors of
the Holocaust. Her goal was to teach the Holocaust as seen through her
mother’s eyes. This was the beginning of Voices of the Generations, a unique
and personal approach to Holocaust education. 

Join us for this important evening of remembrance.

decades through the music of Naomi Shemer, who is known as the first lady of

will be led by Len Hausman.
