Adult B'nai Mitzvah Class
This class is an introduction to the breadth of Jewish learning with the option of becoming a Bar or Bat Mitzvah by leading Shabbat morning services or a portion thereof as a group. The course is ongoing for two years and is led by the clergy. Lectures are presented by the clergy, invited scholars and local educators who share knowledge & insights usually every other Sunday morning from 10:15 am to 11:45 am. Participants will develop a basic ability to read Hebrew and will be given reading in English and other assignments to prepare for class. Topics covered include: Jewish history, holidays, life cycle, theology, medical ethics, kashrut, Shabbat, cantillation, the Torah, the various services as well as other religious topics. Men & Women are welcome. Culminates with a Shabbat service led by the B'nai Mitzvah Group
Even if you already "had" a Bar or Bat Mitzvah, this is an opportunity to consider.
