You're
planning a Bar Mitzvah for your own family in Jerusalem, but is the
Western Wall the best alternative? You want a site with both privacy and
an inspirational view, but what if it rains? Or perhaps you'd like the
Bat Mitzvah ceremony to take place in an Israeli synagogue, yet how can
you find one where you and your family will feel at home?
And if an ancient synagogue is your preference,
or a Galilean hill, where will you get a Torah scroll, a caterer, a rabbi?
These are just some of the questions you'll face in planning a Bar or
Bar Mitzvah in Israel.
Keshet can help provide the answers.
We believe that a Bar or Bat Mitzvah is not merely a ceremony, but
an affirmation of Jewish responsibility and continuity--the essence of
the Israel experience--and we apply our know-how and creativity to ensure
that it remains a meaningful and unforgettable event for you and your
child.
Keshet Bar/Bat Mitzvahs feature:
Spectacular venues that emphasize the beauty and significance of
the Bar/Bat Mitzvah ceremony, whether it be on Mt. Scopus, overlooking
the Old City of Jerusalem, or the Negev's breathtaking Zin Wilderness.
Services in which which everyone--parents, siblings, relatives, and
friends--takes an active part
"Tzedakah" social action projects that bring home the meaning of
Bar/Bat Mitzvah through volunteer activities with children at Hadassah
Medical Center or with elderly residents of Jerusalem
Delicious on-site catering, and terrific parties with Israeli musicians
who play anything from klezmer to bluegrass
Special adventures such as jeep treks through the desert or a scuba diving
lesson in Eilat that make the Bar/Bat Mitzvah experience even more
memorable.
Our
Bar and Bat Mitzvah programs take into consideration the needs
and requests of the families accompanying you, as well as your
Israeli relatives. And if you don't have any Israeli relatives - but wish you did - Keshet will provide them, as well!
