Adult Education
 There are
things whose fruits a person eats in this world while the capital remains
for [him or her] in the world to come: honoring one’s parents, the
practice of loving-kindness, hospitality to strangers, and making peace
between a person and [one’s] neighbor. And the study of Torah
surpasses them all. Babylonian Talmud

Jewish Congregation (CJC) is a progressive congregation, affiliated with
the Reconstructionist movement. We are a multi-generational, diverse
congregation of members whose emphasis on Judaism as a civilization as
well as a religion involves us in the study of Jewish beliefs, teachings,
values, ethics, history, tradition, prayer, art, and music. Our
song-filled services engender a spirit of camaraderie that carries over
into our many communal celebrations and social activities. CJC has a long
history of commitment to Tikkun Olam and Tzedakah, values that we cherish
and strive to pass on to our children.
