This weekend we celebrated our final Bar Mitzvah of the 2025β2026 school year! Mazel tov to every Bar and Bat Mitzvah from this past year! π Watching each of you step up to the bimah β after all the hard work and dedication it took to get there β and make your families, your tutors, your clergy, and your whole CBY family so proud.
Every single one of you was remarkable. We can't wait to watch what comes next.
How do lies about Israel become "truth"? They get repeated β until silence starts to feel easier than speaking up.
In this clip, Rabbi Strauss asks the question we all need to sit with: What do we choose?

It's Museum Monday!
A rabbi sits absorbed in study, his elegant streimel β the fur hat worn by prosperous Eastern European Jews β framing a face lost in thought. The tallit draped over his shoulders completes a portrait of quiet devotion.
Lazar Krestin was born in Kovno in 1868 and had a gift for capturing intimate moments of Jewish life with warmth and dignity.
The date of this oil painting is unknown. Krestin disappeared shortly after the N***s occupied Poland in 1938 β presumed murdered. His legacy lives on not only in works like this one, but through his student Moshe Mokady, who went on to found the artist colony at Ein-Hod in Israel.

Choose Life. Don't Hide. Be Proudly Jewish.
The times we are living in are not easy β but Rabbi Strauss reminds us that Moses had an answer for moments like these: V'charta BaChayim. Choose Life.
Choosing life doesn't mean ignoring the difficulty. It means showing up anyway. Wearing your Star of David. Putting a mezuzah on your door. Coming to synagogue. Living your Jewish values openly and proudly.
This week, choose life.
