BAR AND BAT MITZVAH ACADEMIES 2025

Get ready for an exciting and meaningful journey as the Bar and Bat Mitzvah Academies kick off in February and March 2025! These programs are designed to be educational, spiritual, and most importantly, fun.

Our Bar Mitzvah program, led by Rabbi Wolff and Rabbi Tzuri, and our Bat Mitzvah program, guided by the inspiring Rebbetzin Chanie, Aviva Etkin, and Sara Ahroni, offer weekly interactive lessons that engage and empower participants.

This isn’t just about learning a few prayers; it’s about creating lasting memories while discovering deeper connections to faith, community, and personal growth. Through hands-on activities, discussions, and a supportive group of peers, students will explore their Jewish heritage and be inspired as they take significant steps toward adulthood.

These programs promise a perfect blend of learning and fun – from meaningful teachings to exciting activities, each session is an opportunity to grow spiritually while forming friendships and embracing Jewish traditions in a way that feels relevant and exciting.

Don’t miss out on this enriching experience that will leave you prepared, inspired, and eager to celebrate your milestone with pride and joy!
