SHABBAT SHALOM
CTI’S TEEN GROUP (KIKI’S KIDS) VISITED THE MUSEUM OF JEWISH HERITAGE
HERE ARE SOME OF THEIR IMPRESSIONS:
-
This Museum Not Only Made Me More Aware Of My Jewish Heritage, But Also Of The Horror That Was The Holocaust. It Was Really Inspiring To See How People Found Ways To Keep Judaism Alive. - Zosia
-
Seeing The Museum Made Me Feel Very Emotional And More In Touch With My Jewish Heritage. Knowing That Almost Half Of The Jews In The World Were Brutally Murdered, Along With Five Million Others, Is Awful. I Was Able To Learn Facts About The Holocaust That Were Previously Unknown To Me. I Am Happy To Have Participated In This Trip And This Emotional Experience - Julia
LEARNING & GROWING
TEACHING CHILDREN HOW TO THINK “JEWISHLY”
LIMUD is not your grandparent's Hebrew school--children are actually excited to attend. Teaching focuses, above all, on "values" and "experiential learning."
CTI’s Tot Shabbat Program Nurtures A Sense Of Being Jewish With Torah Stories, Dinner, Arts & Crafts, Fun, Songs, Games And Laughter. Programs Held Monthly On A Friday Evening. For Information Contact Lisa Aamodt, Education Director, Morahlisaa@Gmail.Com, 516-676-5080.

What People are Saying . . .
"We were looking for a communal home, which was not just about prayer and learning. It's about people connecting with people."
Our family continues to love celebrating the history and values of our Jewish heritage. The CTI experience provides us with an opportunity to engage with our spiritually at our own pace and as we are most comfortable. Our Rabbi recently shared the importance of ensuring that all members are able to freely take part without ever being “Jewbarrassed.” We are very honored to be part of CTI and appreciate the journey as we support our children in strengthening their connection to Judaism.

“Try to make the world a better place.” I learned it at CTI. Next to being healthy, it is definitely the best feeling ever!
So, I am grateful for the place I call home in my heart -- CTI with its special Jewish practices, traditions and family I TREASURE whenever I spend time with them.
