Welcome to the Bat Mitzvah Club!
The Bat Mitzvah Club is a unique moment where girls and their mothers can experience Judaism and spirituality in a shared experience. Because Jewish tradition is passed down from mother to daughter, our club steps in once a month to strengthen this special connection. It provides a dedicated space for both, to explore the deeper meaning of being Jewish, examining our relationship with God, and strengthening our bond as a people. Throughout the year, we journey through the Jewish calendar to deepen our understanding of each holiday, and finding what they are meant to awaken inside of us.

Concretely, BMC is designed for girls ages 11 to 13, the program unfolds over twelve gatherings. The core of the experience features ten evening programs shared between mothers and daughters, a Shabbatton, and a final graduation ceremony. Because we want this journey to feel deeply personal, the exact content of the program is  tailored around the specific requests of the  parents. We often add special initiatives based on the group's interests, such as a Yachad Chesed program focused on visiting those who are isolated, or Shabbat mornings orientation in the synagogue. We cannot wait to embark on this beautiful path of growth, learning, and celebration with you!
