The bar/bat mitzvah ceremony celebrates a young Jewish person’s coming of age by demonstrating their ability and willingness to take their place in the world as an accountable and responsible individual.
"Shimon the Righteous tAug.ht: The world depends on three things – on Torah (study), on Avodah (spirituality) and on Gmilut Hasadim (acts of lovingkindness).”
-- Pirkei Avot/Ethics of the Ancestors 1:2.
At Judaism Your Way we offer an individualized curriculum based on these three components: study, spirituality and acts of loving kindness. The specifics will depend on the young person’s background and their family’s Jewish orientation.
