Joining a new synagogue can be a daunting experience: unfamiliar faces, strange building, unaccustomed practices.

To help those new to Congregation B'nai Tzedek lose that lost feeling, each new member is paired with a Mentor. Shortly after joining, new members are contacted by their Mentor. The Mentor will warmly acquaint the new member with CBT through any number of indivualized activities, including

• being introduced to CBT's programs and activities
• attending services together
• having a Shabbat or Yom Tov meal together
• sharing information about the local Jewish community
• attending an Adult Education class
• sharing family customs and holiday celebrations


If you would like more information about the Mentoring Program, or would like to volunteer to be a Mentor, please contact the synagogue office at (714) 963-4611
