Tikkun Olam, "Repairing the World", is a cornerstone of Reform Judaism and an integral part of the ongoing activities at B'nai Israel.

We wish to make Torah Study a hybrid this year – in-person in the Social Hall and on Zoom. In keeping with our policy of again having food available for those who wish, and to further entice, in-person attendance, we will be serving bagels. For those wishing to eat, please RSVP to the synagogue by no later than Friday at 2 PM. The class does not meet on Shabbatot where there is a Bar/Bat Mitzvah, or when the Rabbi is away.
