We encourage everyone to daven privately when unable to attend services. Use the private time to connect to Hashem. Public prayer definitely adds to our prayer experience. Yet we also have the capacity to create a profoundly meaningful private experience with the Divine. Let us seek such an experience in the coming days.

The Israel American Council (IAC) will hold its annual meeting this year in Austin TX, on January 19-21st, 2023 at the Fairmont Hotel downtown. We at CTI are excited to have them here in Austin.
The IAC Conference in Austin is expected to draw several thousand people and may be the largest Jewish event in Austin’s history. Austin was chosen for this honor because of its rapidly growing and dynamic Israeli/American Community.
For those who are not familiar with the organization, it was founded in 2007, and has quickly become one of the most influential Pro-Israel groups in the United States, It works closely with other non-profits as well as the American/Israeli/Jewish communities.
Please check out the link below. Some of our members have already signed up and plan on attending. We encourage you to do the same. Click on the link below to signup:
