Welcome to Congregation B’nai Israel!

For nearly 180 years, CBI has been a cornerstone of Jewish life in Sacramento — a place where tradition and values come alive through meaningful connection and dedicated action. Every person who walks through our doors strengthens our community, and we are honored to share this sacred space with you.

At CBI, we believe that when people come together — across generations, backgrounds, and stories — we create something far greater than ourselves. Our community is a welcoming home where every individual is seen, valued, and supported. Rooted in a deep commitment to worship, learning, and social justice, we strive to be not only a spiritual home but also an active force for tikkun olam — repairing the world around us.

Through shared experience and collective responsibility, we nurture a sense of belonging and purpose that sustains us all. As a vital part of Sacramento’s Jewish landscape, CBI is dedicated to making a positive impact locally and beyond, standing firmly on the front lines of social action and communal care.

Whether you’re joining us for the first time or continuing a lifelong journey with CBI, we invite you to bring your unique gifts, your voice, and your heart to help carry forward this legacy of faith, justice, and connection. Welcome to CBI. We’re so glad you’re here.

L’Shanah Tovah Tikateivu! • Very best wishes for a healthy, happy new year!
