B Mitzvahs at Romemu

We help students explore what it means to come of age in a Jewish community. B Mitzvah is Romemu’s gender-neutral term for a bar or bat mitzvah. A B Mitzvah is a moment in the human journey when a person becomes both counted and accountable – in one’s family, community, and society at large. We aim to deepen the process of that move toward responsibility and independence through reflection, study, and ultimately, celebration. We offer a program of study and exploration that is specifically tailored to your family and the strengths and talents of your child as they navigate their way through the B Mitzvah journey.

In our Seekers Holistic Hebrew school students will learn Torah cantillation and Saturday prayers, while individually, with a tutor, they will learn to chant their Torah portion and go through a guided personal journey of reflection and contemplation about this time in their life, culminating with mentorship by our clergy to share the wisdom they have learned from their Torah portion. As a cohort in sixth and seventh grade, students and parents will learn together and reflect on what it means to become a mature member of their families and communities and to live a joyous, mitzvah-centered life.

Whether on Zoom or in person we will work with you to have a deep and meaningful B Mitzvah, guiding you every step of the way to create a special service.
