Seems like yesterday we were finishing religious school for the year and summer was something to look forward too!

I cannot believe June is here and the first year of my term has just flown by! I find myself thinking back on this past year and wonder where the time has gone. I am happy to be able to say that despite Covid, our Congregation has not only survived, but we have also managed Continue Reading »
I guess the old adage about April showers bringing May flowers is true. I hope we all take time to enjoy all the beautiful flowers and trees all over Macon and especially at our own CSI. Aren’t they just beautiful! The daffodils planted by the Ilans are just beginning to peek out and should be Continue Reading »
As I write my article, March is winding down. Passover is almost here. Our little Kehilla was certainly very busy this past month here at CSI. I am sure all the “kids” big and small enjoyed the return of our Purim skit and the wonderful corn beef sandwiches and Beyond Meat burgers with all the Continue Reading »

I hope everyone had a good holiday of Thanksgiving this past month. I know that the time away from Macon gave me a chance to take the time to think of all the things I was thankful for. I am thankful for my family, friends, my family’s health, and all that I have and am Continue Reading »
The High Holidays are behind us as well as Sukkot and Simchat Torah. I want to offer a big thank you to the Rabbi, Sharona, Zohar and all of the volunteers who helped make our holidays happen. All of you helped make our Zoom services warm, inclusive, and almost as good as if we were Continue Reading »

Sadly, we were unable to share some of these services in person, but thanks to some creativity on the part of the Rabbi, we were able to have a courtyard Simchat Torah with a decent turnout. Hopefully next year, the calendar and Continue Reading »
