Bar/Bat/B'nei Mitzvah

A Bar, Bat, or B'nei Mitzvah is actually the celebration of a beginning, as the child starts to take responsibility for their own Jewish identity. BarBat, and B'nei Mitzvah celebrations take place within the three Jewish contexts of family, Jewish community, and the synagogue service. A Bar/Bat/B'nei Mitzvah is a joyous event for the family as well as for our entire congregation.

Parents of Bar/Bat/B'nei mitzvah students must be members of Chizuk Amuno at least three years before their child’s Bar, Bat, or B'nei mitzvah. The student must have completed at least six years of religious education and be currently enrolled in a formal program of religious instruction. Our goal is to help our children grow into their awareness of the obligations and privileges of belonging to the adult Jewish community.

For detailed information on requirements, a B'nei Mitzvah Handbook, preparation, training, and event planning, contact Archer Davis.
