B'nei Mitzvah
What is a Bar/Bat Mitzvah?
A Bar/Bat Mitzvah signifies that a person is prepared to accept the responsibilities of being a mature Jewish person. While years of religious education and a full year of specific preparation for the Bar/Bat Mitzvah leads up to this event, the Bar/Bat Mitzvah does not mark the completion of Jewish education. Rather it is a milestone on the path of lifelong learning. It is one act of participation in the Jewish community that continues throughout a person's life.
A bar or bat mitzvah is a community celebration at Congregation Rodeph Sholom. Rabbi Kornworcel works closely with the student to ensure their bar or bat mitzvah is a meaningful and empowering experience. Bar and Bat Mitzvah students are prepared to lead the congregation in prayer, read from the Torah and Haftorah, and deliver a d'var Torah from the bimah to share insights from their parsha (Torah portion).
To discuss your child's Bar/Bat Mitzvah and schedule your child's simcha at Congregation Rodeph Sholom, please contact the Rodeph Sholom office at 813-837-1911.
