Upcoming Men's Club Breakfast Speakers and Topics Feb 1, 2026 -- Faith Wight -- Did you know the world renown artist Chagall was Jewish, as well as contemporary artists Taacov Agam and Judy Chicago? Please join CBC's own Faith Wight in exploring their work and significant contributions they each have made to the world of art. Faith is a volunteer educator assistant and docent at the Grounds for Sculpture in Hamilton and taught basic Hebrew and Bible studies to 3rd and 4th graders at Temple Micah for 19 years. Faith has a unique understanding about how these artists were influenced by their Jewish upbringing and will share with us these artists' most famous masterpieces. Mar 1, 2026 -- Patricia Schneider -- When we think of anxiety today, we often imagine it as a clinical or private experience - something to be treated, managed, or hidden. But in the Jewish Bible, anxiety is not hidden at all. It is sacredly exposed. The Toah and the Prophets show us the trembling moments of our ancestors: Abraham afraid, Jacob sleepless, Hannah weeping, Elijah exhausted. In each of these stories, anxiety becomes not an obstacle to faith but its very ground - the place where human vulnerability meets divine presence. Please join our own Patricia Schneider to help see in these ancient narratives the beginnings of a spiritual psychology - one that speaks to our contemporary struggles with depth, courage, and compassion.
Dr Patricia Schneider, is a Licensed Clinical Psychologist, and Frommian Psychoanalyst, who trained in Switzerland, Mexico City at the institute that Dr Erich Fromm founded in Mexico City, and in the USA. She holds a PHD in Clinical Psychology and a postdoctoral specialization in Frommian Psychoanalysis. She has worked in clinical, and hospital settings with mainly adult patient populations of varying ethnicities, cultural, racial, linguistic, and diagnostic characteristics, and in corporate and pharmaceutical settings assessing the impact of varying doses of psychotropic medication on differing levels of symptom severities. She currently is in private practice.

Beth Chaim Office Cabinet Rebuild -- January 18, 2026, 9:00 AM - 1:00 PM Our next Jews with Tools construction project is here. Updating the Beth Chaim front office!
As discussed at breakfast, we will be installing the new office cabinets this coming Sunday, January 18th starting at 9am. There are 4 upper cabinets, 6 base cabinets and a temp countertop to install. Demolition was already done by Seidy and her crew. Which is good in some ways, but we don't get the fun of destroying the old cabinets and throwing the debris over into the dumpster!
We need 4-8 guys for this project.
If you are interested and are a bit handy, or just want to hang-out and provide comic relief (you know who you are), please join us. You must sign-up via the link below, don't text Eric!
Once we see who is helping, Eric will send an email later this week to coordinate tool needs so you don't schlep stuff over that may not be needed.
But bring your own work gloves and eye protection. Men's Club will provide lunch!
Any questions, you can text Eric at 609-439-5151.
Thanks very much,
Details: Location: Congregation Beth Chaim Office. Fee: No Charge. RSVP .
