Holocaust Remembrance Program

Tuesday, April 30 at 7:00 p.m.

in the Sanctuary

PLEASE NOTE EARLIER START TIME

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.

CBI Lifelong Learning Presents

The Story of the State of

Israel Through Its Music

Four Class Mini-Session Starts This Monday Morning

April 29 and May 6, 13 & 20 from 9:30-10:30 a.m.

Music is an ideal way to learn about a country's history and culture. In the
initial module of this class we will be learning about Israel's first two
decades through the music of Naomi Shemer, who is known as the first lady of
Israeli song and poetry. Her music is regarded as the soundtrack of the
lives of Israelis who came of age in the 60's, 70's, and 80's. The class
will be led by Len Hausman.

For more details, please click

congregants to present programs on a variety of topics. Two topics will be
presented, with time for Q&A.

 

Bell Labs, Wafers and Turing Machines - From Sand to Smartphones

This talk will explore the history and technology behind computer
technology, tailored to the non-technical but interested in what is behind
the curtain.

 

How to Manage Your Wealth and Stay Out of the Poor House

Presented by Dan Ramer

The emotions of money, fear vs. greed, why most investors under perform.

Being a contrarian and not following the herd.

What to do about consistently low interest rates when you are retired.

The next recession? And what that means for your finances.

Saving! Spend less at Starbucks and Basilico and invest for retirement.

Refreshments will be served.

 

 

 



CBI Chanting Circle

The Kabbalah of Music

Sunday May 5 at 5:00 p.m. 

 

Join us in the Chapel for our inspirational Hebrew chant and song circle
with musical accompaniment.In Kabbalah there is a practice of using the
seven weeks between Passover and Shavu'ot as a time of personal and
spiritual renewal. By chanting words from our liturgy and the Zohar favored
by the Kabbalists of Safed we hope to share in this practice.

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.
