Honor Traditions with Joy
Join us as we celebrate and uphold the milestones and customs of Jewish life. From intimate ceremonies to communal gatherings, our rituals bring joy, meaning, and spiritual depth to every sacred moment.
Our Rituals and Celebrations Team works together with our Rabbi and Cantor to produce and promote these events throughout the year.
Rituals & Celebrations
At CBSRZ, rituals and celebrations lie at the heart of our communal life, uniting members across generations in observance and joy.
We honor Jewish traditions, from weekly Shabbat services to festive holiday gatherings, creating meaningful spaces for prayer, song, and reflection. Our clergy and lay leaders guide these moments with wisdom and warmth, ensuring that each ceremony fosters a sense of belonging and connection. Together, we weave tradition into our modern lives, fostering both spiritual renewal and enduring Jewish identity.
Whether you’re a lifelong participant or new to our congregation, we welcome you to join the team that makes these great events happen.
Anyone Can Sponsor an Oneg Shabbat
Sponsor an Oneg Shabbat and help make our community gathering even sweeter! By signing up to sponsor, you provide the refreshments that allow us to come together after services to enjoy food, conversation, and connection. It’s a meaningful way to celebrate a simcha, honor a loved one, or simply support our congregation. Sign up for a date and help create a warm and welcoming Shabbat for everyone.
Volunteer to Help with Your Favorite Holiday
Volunteer to help bring your favorite holiday to life! Your support helps create meaningful celebrations for our whole community. Sign up to lend a hand and be part of making our holidays joyful, engaging, and memorable.
Are You Choir Curious?
Our choir is a small group of congregants who simply enjoy singing together and helping bring music into our services throughout the year. You don’t need formal training or the ability to read music. If you like to sing and are open to learning, you’ll fit right in.
Rehearsals are relaxed, collaborative, and a great way to get to know people. If you have ever wondered what it might be like to add your voice, you are very welcome to come sit in and try it out.
Be a Part of the Rituals & Celebrations Committee
The Rituals and Celebrations Committee helps shape the shared moments that give our community its rhythm. From holidays to special Shabbatot, the committee works with Rabbi Bellows and Belinda to think about how we celebrate together.
If you enjoy Jewish tradition, have ideas about meaningful ways to mark the year, or simply want to help create warm and welcoming communal moments, we would love to have you join us.
