Living A Jewish Way of Life

About Us

We are a small congregation that is friendly, warm, and inviting. Community is a vital part of our congregation and is evident in many of the programs we offer.

Community

CBT embraces interfaith families, encouraging everyone to participate fully in our community. We pride ourselves on the relationships and social interaction.

Membership

We are a small but active congregation. We have interfaith and non-traditional families, singles and couples, young kids and the young at heart. Join us!

Learning

Religious School is held on Sundays and classes range from pre-school/kindergarten age to B’nai Mitzvah young adults. Learning continues in our Adult Education classes.

Worship

Release the cares of the week and welcome in the joy of Shabbat with family and friends. Together, we celebrate the holidays throughout the Jewish year with worship, stories and study.

CBT is actively involved with fulfilling the mitzvah of tikkun olam, repairing the world. Volunteers are the driving force behind all our synagogue programs, including social action and caring outreach.

This year, as Jews across the globe begin to prepare for the High Holy Days, the most sacred time of year, I personally feel a sense of deep despair and fierce urgency to enter the year of 5786 embracing the particular and the universal.
