Here's what our Adult B'nei Mitzvah alumni say about the experience:
“The Adult Bnei Mitzvah class at NSCI is the experience of a lifetime. It is a magical journey of learning, faith and friendship. This class gave me confidence and understanding to feel connected and a part of the service.”
- Lindsay Emalfarb, Adult B'nei Mitzvah class, 2021
Adult B’nei Mitzvah is a journey of learning and community culminating in a group service led by our students who read Torah and share their thoughts. Class meets two hours/week on Monday nights during the school year, one hour of Hebrew and one of prayer, holiday, theology and other topics. Adult B’nei Mitzvah draws students from varying backgrounds and is about learning and finding out about yourself and your beliefs--you’ll read and study, and reflect on where you are and what you think. It’s a wonderful opportunity to get to know others in our community you might never have met.
We are building a class now and welcome a few more students. Interested in learning more about it? To learn more, please contact Rabbi Greene: (847) 835-0724 or click the button below.
