CBE is a spiritual, cultural, and intellectual hub for Jewish life
Congregation Beth Elohim, fondly known as CBE, offers authentic, meaningful and outside the box Jewish experiences for those in our Brooklyn community and beyond.
We are deeply committed to education for all ages, community-building, spiritual life, and social justice. We are inspired to learn about our tradition while we engage with the present and positively impact our future. Our Reform congregation welcomes seekers from all Jewish movements, from other faiths, and at all levels of Jewish experience, including those who are new to our traditions and those who are questioning.
The Music and People of Poland & Prague
Sunday, June 26 to Wednesday, July 6, 2022, join Cantor Josh Breitzer and the soaring voices of the American Conference of Cantors on a unique journey, as together they sing, pray and explore their way through Europe! It will be a mission of music and healing, featuring gala concerts, outstanding scholarship, connections with local communities and unforgettable touring geared toward Cantors and congregants alike. Join them as they discover the inspiring people, hidden history and musical heritage of Poland and Prague!
Security Webinar
In light of last week’s incident in Colleyville, Texas, CBE is planning an education series informing our community of what to do should the unthinkable happen in our spiritual home. The first event is a webinar on Thursday, January 27 at 1:00 pm (EST), and will be led by Secure Community Network (SCN), a trusted partner to Jewish congregations. No background in security is necessary to participate. The course will cover the basics of situational awareness and how to protect yourself, your family, and your community.
