Adult B'Mitzvah Zoom Info Session

Adult B'Mitzvah 2027: 

An educational and spiritual journey in Jewish community

Instructor: Cantor Alicia Stillman - Tuesdays, 7-9pm on site at Temple Israel

The Adult B’Mitzvah cohort is a four-semester class for adult learners preparing them for a B'Mitzvah in which students will lead Shabbat morning services with the Temple Israel clergy during which they will both share personal writings as well as read from the Torah.

Based on the three pillars of Reform Judaism: God, Torah, and Israel, the class will cover such varied areas as Jewish history, Israel, the Jewish bookshelf, liturgy, mitzvot, theology, music and Hebrew. Woven into the four semesters will be shared observances of the holidays and understanding their significance as well as their agricultural ties to Israel and the Torah.

We believe that the entire congregation benefits when individual members expand their knowledge and observance of sacred Jewish moments - we could not be happier to offer you the opportunity to learn together.

We will offer an informational meeting for the 2027 cohort on Tuesday evening, June 17, 7:00 - 8:00 p.m. on Zoom, open to all interested in this cohort. Please attend and bring your questions. In the meantime, immediate inquiries can be directed to Cantor Stillman.

The program culminates in a spiritually inspiring B/Mitzvah service, led by both the Adult B'Mitzvah class and Temple Israel clergy, on Saturday, April 24, 2027. (Pesach III)
