Bar, Bat and Kabbalat Mitzvah
Bar, Bat and Kabbalat Mitzvah
Being called to the Torah as a Bar or Bat Mitzvah is an important milestone as our children immerse themselves in Jewish learning and formally recognize their commitment to a Jewish life. This cherished ritual is a time for the entire community to come together and to plant the roots upon which a child can grow into living a Jewish life.
The b’nai mitzvah program is designed to help children understand what Judaism means to them personally and as a member of the Jewish community and of society. Through the program, they study Torah, prayer, Jewish identity, and spirituality.
In addition to preparing children for b’nai mitzvah, Tifereth Israel creates a structure for those who are studying for bar and bat mitzvah to come together, including a weekend retreat. Preparation also includes special projects to heighten their awareness of the people and events happening in the community and the world.
Note: Some of our children have favored the term “Kabbalat Mitzvah” as a non-gendered term for this milestone, and we have supported them in this innovation.
