Blessing for High School Graduates

Friday, May 21, 5:30 p.m.

(6:30 p.m. on Zoom - link on bettorah.org/virtual-minyan)

We invite you to mark the class of 2021's transition from high school to the next phase of life.

If you are not able to attend, please email Ilana Fleischner, Executive Assistant to Our Clergy to set up a time for your family to meet with Rabbi Brusso.

Our wonderful teens in our class of 2021 go to over nine different high schools. It has been difficult to find a Friday evening that works for everyone at this celebratory time of year filled with prom, graduation, and other festivities.

5:30 p.m. on bettorah-org.zoom.us/j/89692487427 - Rabbi Brusso will lead a conversation during which parents and teens will have a chance to speak to each other about the meaning of this transition.

Teen and parents are asked to log on using different devices.

6:30 p.m. on Zoom (link on bettorah.org/virtual-minyan; we will join the main Bet Torah Kabbalat Shabbat Service) - Friday night services will include a ritual of leave-taking and we will offer a blessing to the new graduates as they go on their way. Grandparents and others are welcome to join us on the Kabbalat Shabbat Zoom to see us bless these graduates.
