CBI Film Series - "Rosenwald" (In-person)
Join us for screening of "Rosenwald" as we learn about the incredible history of the Rosenwald schools.
Director Aviva Kempner’s "Rosenwald" tells the incredible story of Julius Rosenwald, who never finished high school, but rose to become the President of Sears. Influenced by the writings of the educator Booker T. Washington, this Jewish philanthropist joined forces with African American communities during the Jim Crow South to build over 5,300 schools during the early part of the 20th century.
Beit Midrash / Text Study (In-person)
Many of you were with us on Simchat Torah this year when, during our dancing, one of our congregants fell to the ground with the Torah – Both the person and the Torah are okay! In recognition of this, CBI invited anyone who so desired to observe forty days of tzedakah during the months of Heshvan and Kislev, as a way of responding to the "incident of the fallen Torah."
Join Rabbi Tom for a Beit Midrash (text study) considering some Jewish thoughts and principles about tzedakah. At the end of the Beit Midrash, we'll have a discussion about some ways to honor the "fallen Torah" as a community.

CBI Film Series - Dinner & Movie "Ada: My Mother The Architect" (In-person | Registration REQUIRED)
Ada Karmi Melamede is one of the most accomplished architects in the world, but very little is known about her outside her home country of Israel. ADA - MY MOTHER THE ARCHITECT is a deeply moving portrait of an extraordinary woman directed by her daughter, filmmaker, and former architect, Yael Melamede.
There will be a dinner before the screening, please contact the CBI office to register for this event.
Tu B'Shevat Seder & Kabbalat Shabbat (In-person | REGISTRATION REQUIRED)
To celebrate the New Year of the Trees, we will welcome Shabbat with a Tu B'Shevat "Seder." Like the Passover Seder, we will drink four glasses of wine or juice, and we will taste some special foods – in this case at least fifteen different fruits or nuts that grow on trees. The subject of our contemplation and prayer will be the Kabbalistic Tree of Life, with its root above in the great Unity and its fruit in this world of division and multiple forms.
Registration is REQUIRED; please contact the CBI office to let us know you’d like to attend.
