Life Cycle Rituals

From pregnancy and birth through death and mourning, Jewish ritual helps us feel rooted. Through ritual, we connect to our tradition, to our personal histories, to our families and to our community.  And we deepen our awareness of the sacred dimensions in our lives.

By marking the significant events in our lives with ritual, we can reflect on who we are and who we might become. And ritual allows us to be teachers – to share with our family, friends and community what living Jewishly means to us.

At Mishkan Tefila, we share in the celebrations of brit milah, simchat bat and baby namings, bnei mitzvah, and weddings.  And we sit together during times of illness and loss, mourning and remembering.  Our clergy and professional staff will do their utmost to support and facilitate all of our life cycle rituals.

And, as always, our Sanctuary and Chapel, as well as large and small Social Halls, are available.  Please contact us anytime.
