  • Bar Mitzvah Prep

  • We encourage boys to sign up for their bar mitzvah preparations two years in advance. During this period, they will participate in the following programs:

    - Jew Q: Complete two terms.
    - Shul Attendance: Attend shul services once a month.
    - Sunday Tefillin Wrap: Join the weekly Sunday Tefillin Wrap every Sunday, with more frequent participation as the bar mitzvah date approaches.

    We are happy to assist in the purchasing of the Tefillin or we can recommend a shop for you to 
    purchase them from. 

    These activities are designed to enrich their Jewish knowledge, strengthen their connection to the community, and prepare them for this significant milestone.
