Sign up for one of our Social Groups! We have lots of groups for people with lots of varied interests. Maybe you’re new to the area… or maybe you already have friends to watch a movie with, but are looking for people to go on day trips or to dinner with. It’s easy to find others with a common interest when you are part of a big community. CBS Social Groups are interest groups where anyone can suggest or plan a gathering and invite others who have expressed similar interests through our CBS social club emails. Check out the list and sign up here!

Back near the beginning of June, our WAFTY Senior Youth group led a beautiful Shabbat service crafted by graduating senior, Kaila Goldstein. In it, we heard from several of our teens, some of whom had been to Israel and others who had not, speak about some of the ways they seek to have a relationship and sense of connection with Israel.
Welcome to the Religious School, Hebrew School and Chai School re-enrollment process for the 2018 – 2019 school year. We are so pleased to have your child returning to Congregation B'nai Shalom for another great year.
A Message from RobI hope everyone enjoyed the wonderful spring weather and is looking forward to the summer. Taking a look back at the winter, you will recall that the building sustained some damage during the incredible cold spell that we experienced just after New Year’s Day. The good news, as most of you have likely seen, is that the walls have been put back together and painted, and the carpets have been cleaned.
