Rabbi Baker’s Class for Teens
Rabbi Baker is soon to begin a class for the teens of CKH (high school or post Bar or Bat Mitzvah). The class will include two types of sessions. Rabbi Baker will lead a series of discussions on hot topic such as Israel, sexuality, etc. Interspersed in this series of discussions will be sessions organized by Shlomi Harif in which the teens will meet with people from the community (politicians, artists, academics, religious leaders, etc.). These latter sessions may involve discussions but they also may involve activities in the community such as service projects designed to connect with issues addressed in the discussions with Rabbi Baker. The class begins on Sunday, November 5th at 1:15 pm at the Congregational Office.

In Remembrance

Thank You!

Congratulations!

Daniel Graves and his team raised nearly $1800 for the Alzheimer Association. He received special recognition at the end of the walk for fund raising, and the fact that this was his bar mitzvah project - followed by a hearty round of applause from the crowd. Other b'nai mitzvah team members included gifted fund raisers Corina Santos, Natalie Becker, and Ryan Ladd.
