CBST is a very meaningful part of my life. I have found a spiritual re-awakening through the congregation and have found community in new friends. Friday night Kabbalat Shabbat services are the most profound and sacred part of my week. I am proud to serve on the Board and work together to continue to build an inspiring and vibrant LGBTQ+ synagogue. Tov L’hadot Adonai. It is good to give thanks.
