Bar or Bat Mitzvah Welcome Call

Bnai Mitzvah Meeting

Your Family’s Jewish Journey Starts Here.

Schedule a meeting with Rabbi Amy to talk about B’nai Mitzvah, Hebrew school, or anything in between.

Your child’s Jewish journey is one of the most meaningful chapters your family will share together. And every great chapter begins with a conversation.

Whether you are just starting to think about a B’nai Mitzvah, are already deep into the planning process, or want to talk about what Hebrew school looks like for your family, I would love to meet with you. These meetings are for you, not just your child. I want to understand where your family is, what matters to you, and how Neshamah can support you every step of the way.

No membership required. No prior affiliation needed. Just a family who cares about raising a Jewish child, and a rabbi who is here to help you do exactly that.

Use the calendar below to schedule your family meeting. We can meet in person in the Boca Raton or Delray Beach area, or by Zoom from wherever you are.

Who This Meeting Is For

B’nai Mitzvah Families

Whether your child is years away or months out, this is the meeting to start. We will talk about the Neshamah approach to B’nai Mitzvah preparation, what your child’s experience will look like, and how we support the whole family through the process.

Hebrew School Families

Wondering if Hebrew school at Neshamah is the right fit? Thinking about Jewish education for the first time? Returning after a gap? Let’s talk. I want to understand where your child is and what would make this feel meaningful rather than obligatory.

Not sure which applies to you? Book a meeting anyway. We will figure it out together.
