We are honored to celebrate these occasions with families from around the world, who want to experience their simcha in the Holy Land, and are looking for a progressive, traditional, and egalitarian approach to their life cycle events, in the heart of Israel &#8211; Tel Aviv-Jaffa.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Bar and Bat Mitzvah<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Central to the values Judaism is the family gathering and celebrating together. \u201cFrom generation to generation\u201d the Torah is passed from the grandmothers and grandfathers, to the mothers and fathers, to the bar or bat mitzvah. Celebrations can be held in any one of our communities on Shabbat morning afternoon, or on Mondays and Thursdays. As part of the preparatory session, parents and children attend meetings, study and experience, and a moving ceremony of laying tefillin. We commonly support dozens of families living abroad through virtual connections and tutoring.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-12304 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.beit-daniel.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Naomi-Kid-Torah-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"488\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.beit-daniel.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Naomi-Kid-Torah-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.beit-daniel.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Naomi-Kid-Torah-168x126.jpg 168w, https:\/\/www.beit-daniel.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Naomi-Kid-Torah-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.beit-daniel.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Naomi-Kid-Torah-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.beit-daniel.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Naomi-Kid-Torah.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>We<\/b><b>ddings and Commitment Ceremonies\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A Reform wedding or commitment ceremony is inclusive and welcoming of all Jews, including same sex couples.
