Crossing
the River/ B'nei Mitzvah handbook
We have
developed a handbook for our Crossing the River students to
use as they approach B'ar or B'at Mitzvah. Most of the information
you need to start planning for this event is contained herein.
Beit Sefer
Chadash’s Crossing the River Program will prepare you
to begin your serious and intensive Bar/Bat Mitzvah training.
Both years of Crossing the River are required for you to become
a Bar/Bat Mitzvah in the Nevei Kodesh community
CTR is designed
as a bridge to Jewish adult-hood and as such is a bridge into
our the Nevei Kodesh Community. Beit Sefer is a unique school
in that we do not require commitment to the sponsoring congregation
Nevei Kodesh until a commitment is made to have Rabbi Tirzah
Firestone officiate at your child's B'ar or Bat Mitzvah. To
that end Beit Sefer provides you with the standards required
by our Rabbi, including B’nai Mitzvah requirements and
planning calendars.
As you get
closer to your own Bar/Bat Mitzvah date, Meagan Forney meagan@neveikodesh.org
or Rabbi Tirzah can answer most of your questions. You can reach
