Shabbat Message from Rabbi Moshe

Posted on by Reb Moshe

Wednesdays, June 11, 18 & 25 – Spiritual Technologies: A three-part series, 7pm

Reb Zalman Schachter-Shalomi was known for his innovative approach to spirituality and his emphasis on “spiritual technologies” as a means to deepen connection with oneself and the divine. He saw these technologies as methods to cultivate spiritual awareness and practice, drawing inspiration from diverse traditions and cultures. They include niggunim (wordless melodies), prayer, study, meditation, storytelling, and rituals like the shofar.

Coastside Jewish Community Book Club meets approximately once every two months at members’ homes. We read all kinds of books that are in some way related to Judaism, and generally ensure our books are available through a library. We schmooze, we nosh, we even discuss the book we all read! Most importantly, we get together to enjoy each others’ company. Participants must be members of Coastside Jewish Community.

For more information, email Vaughn.

Posted on by Laura

Meet the BZBs (Bubbies, Zadies, and Bubbelehs) 

The BZBs is an intergenerational club designed to create connections amongst CJC members who wouldn’t ordinarily meet up much. Members are families with children and older folk who may or may not have grandchildren of their own, and anyone else who’d like to make some new friends. In other words, EVERYONE! We’ll have social get-togethers at peoples’ homes, parks, CJC events, and anyplace that has activities to entertain the bubbelehs.
