Shabbat Message: Take action, continue learning, stay connected, and vote

Posted on October 9, 2026October 9, 2026 by Theresa Strecker

There’s no CJC Shabbat service tonight, but if you’re doing something for Shabbat, let Reb Moshe know here. He will be delighted and will wish you a “Shabbat Shalom!”

Dear CJC Members & Friends,

The word mitzvah is often understood in a general sense as a good deed, but in a broader sense, it can be understood as a moral or ethical action; an act of great importance and significance; a sacred obligation.

Book Club

Our next book: We will discuss An Officer and a Spy, by Robert Harris on Wednesday, October 14, at 7pm.

Coastside Jewish Community Book Club meets approximately once every two months at members’ homes. We read all kinds of books that are in some way related to Judaism, and generally ensure our books are available through a library. We usually get together in person, and make online access available if anyone tells us they need it. Quite importantly, we get together to enjoy each others’ company.
