B’NAI MITZVAH @ TBA
Through the
process of becoming a Bar or Bat Mitzvah at Temple B'nai Abraham, we
nurture knowledgeable young Jewish adults who will become active
members of the community, and who will have a love of Judaism that
will guide them throughout their lives.
You will receive
great joy watching your child learn, grow and then read from Torah
on that special Shabbat as you share with your loved ones, friends
and the congregational family. Focusing on the values that are most
important in our tradition, you and your child will explore together
what commitments we can make to bring these principles to life.
Judaism has a lot of special wisdom to offer, but it is up to each
of us to make it real.
On this page
we offer some guidance and tools to assist you in making this a
loving and meaningful experience for the entire family. It is
designed to provide you with the pertinent information on the
procedures, tasks, schedules and participation integral to the
Bar/Bat Mitzvah process and Shabbat morning services.
Please do not
hesitate to contact the
Rabbi Kulwin,
Cantor Epstein,
or
Religious School Director Janet Resnick with any questions or
comments.
