| Due to the COVD-19 outbreak and restrictions, we are now live-streaming selected events. You do not need to be a Facebook member or be logged into Facebook to see and hear the Shabbat service, nor do you need to have a account to participate in the Torah Study or many other events offered by Beth Chaim. Thank you all for enthusiastically embracing this new technology and helping to create such a loving and supportive virtual community within BCC. |

Here's an effortless - and cost-free - way to help support Beth Chaim!
Use smile.amazon.com when you shop online at Amazon as so many of us do. Simply set
Congregation Beth Chaim in Danville as your charity. (They list more than one Beth Chaim, so be sure to choose our congregation.) Automatically, Amazon will donate half-a-percent of every purchase thereafter to BCC.
No fees or extra costs. You'll make a big difference with this one-time small step!
