Here at Shir Ami, B. Mitzvah is celebrated by participating in Shabbat worship, by reading and interpreting Torah and by assisting in the leading of the service.
In truth, however, it is much more than this. When a young Jewish person becomes B. Mitzvah, it is a public statement that represents many things, including:
• An elementary knowledge of Hebrew and Jewish studies
• A commitment to seek a mature understanding of Jewish history, customs, ethics, and theology
• Acceptance of moral responsibility for individual actions
• Acceptance of the necessity of deepening and enriching one's Jewish identity
• A commitment to tzedakah
