Serving CBI and the Greenville Jewish Community
Men's Club
The Men’s Club of Congregation Beth Israel is a friendly group. Our club welcomes synagogue members of all age to share their many talents for the benefit of the community. Leadership opportunities are available. If you are interested in becoming more fully connected with the CBI and our congregants, taking on a leadership role with Men’s Club is a great way to get to know everyone and do some real good.
Religious School
Working in partnership with our students, families, and congregation to provide an outstanding Pre K-12th grade Jewish education, we seek to nurture our young people to appreciate and celebrate their Jewish identity in the context of modern American life and to inspire our children to be committed to a life of Jewish living and learning.
Sisterhood
Sisterhood is continually looking for ways to engage women in all stages of their lives. We bring together women of all ages to share in fun, interactive, and spiritually inspired events. Through Sisterhood, we hope you will continue to grow in leadership roles and in your understanding and enjoyment of Judaism. Our Sisterhood is affiliated with Women’s League for Conservative Judaism and supports Torah Fund.
