The Jewish Day of Mourning.

"WHY DO I HAVE TO GO TO RELIGIOUS SCHOOL?"

• Because you are a Jew. Therefore, I want you to know as much about being Jewish as you possibly can.

• Because at Religious School you get to learn and socialize with other Jewish children.

• Because one of the most important things the Torah expects of parents is to teach Torah to our children, and if we are unable to do that, we are obligated to find someone who can do it for us.

• Because Judaism is precious, beautiful, and important. I want you to share in it and be connected to it.

• Because Judaism is more than just a religion - it's a way of life.

• Because the only way to continue the unbroken chain of Judaism is to study it, know it, and pass it along to your children. You are a precious link in this chain, which stretches back through generations, and while you may add to it, you should not break it.

• Because I love you and want what is best for you.
