Bat Mitzvah Discovery Course
Sunday evenings, January through June
$250.00
The Bat Mitzvah Discovery Course is for girls in the year before their Bat Mitzvah ceremony. To better prepare for this milestone,, Layah Lipsker teaches the girls about what it means to become a Bat Mitvah and become a part of the Jewish people. Much
emphasis is put on the spiritual strength of Jewish women. Jewish values and ethics are addressed weekly and the girls study the 13 principles of faith, including discussions on G-d, reincarnation, death, and purpose. The course includes book
selections, a Shabbat in NY, and weekly Journal writing. Most importantly, this is a wonderful opportunity to encourage a close camaraderie between the girls themselves, in a warm and spiritual environment.
During our first class, your daughter will discover that when she wakes up on her 12th birthday, she becomes a Bat Mitzvah automatically, meaning she becomes responsible to fulfill Mitzvot. We will learn that on the day she turns 12, a girl is given a new level of her soul, one that has been waiting since her birth to enter her body. This added spiritual strength allows a young girl to become a full partner with G-d in bringing holiness into the world, through the Mitzvahs. This kind of spiritual and Kabalistic talk will be a regular part of the Bat Mitzvah Discovery Club.
The Bat Mitzvah Discovery Course is open to all girls, no matter where
their Bat Mitzvahs will take place. However, girls who are celebrating at Chabad will also prepare for their Friday night service during the Bat Mitzvah Discovery Course.
