Chanukah begins the evening of Thursday, December 7, and we’ve set up programs to bring light, warmth, and joy across our community.
Enjoy music, stories, and serious décor at our Chanukah Family Shabbat at 6:00 PM on Friday, December 8; spend quality time with your community and clergy while enjoying latke and poke at Rabbi Joseph’s Chanukah Open House on Saturday, December 9 at 4:00 PM (New Members) and 5:00 PM (CBI Community); explore the holiday and have a blast at a special Chanukah Fair for kids in PreK through 2nd grade on Sunday, December 10, and join us that evening at 4:00 PM for Sanctuary for Humanity: An Interfaith Healing Concert.
Now through December, CBI’s Social Action Committee will be collecting peanut and other nut butters–the number one requested item nationwide–for LiftUP (formerly Lift Urban Portland). Peanut and other nut butters are shelf-stable, high in protein, and popular with all ages, making your donation particularly impactful for LiftUP’s food-insecure clientele.
Donation bins are located in the Schnitzer Family Center.
