CBST honored our outgoing president, Gregg Passin, and welcomed our new president, Sabrina Farber, during our Board Installation Shabbat.
Rabbi Kleinbaum: "Gregg, thank you for your three years of service as board president, and your service on the board since 2014. In these years of organizational maturation for CBST, we celebrate your sensitivity and ability to deal with complex situations with thoughtfulness, consideration, and deliberation. You've guided us through rocky waters and been a strong, supportive part of our leadership team. We are so grateful for the blessing of your presidency. Thank you, Gregg, on behalf of the entire synagogue."
CBST Board President Sabrina Farber, in her inaugural address to the congregation: "I am deeply honored and humbled to take up the position of president of Congregation Beit Simchat Torah. When I found CBST, I knew I was home. As a community, we've changed and transformed, yet haven't lost our identity as a bold spiritual community of love and resistance. There are many challenges ahead, and I know that, with your help, we can meet them."
