UK - London - Stamford Hill Jewish Community - Bar Mitzvah

Friends of a 13 year-old Orthodox Jewish boy who have already had their Bar Mitzvah pray without him before his begins, Stamford Hill. The Bar Mitzvah signals the coming of age for a young Jewish boy, they become responsible to observe the commandments of the Torah. It coincides with physical puberty and they begin to participate in all areas of Jewish life. A Bar mitzvah ceremony is a big occasion, the young boy reads a section from the Torah to his family and friends and a mitzvah meal is consumed.
