Max's BarMitzvah!

What is Maxcabiah?
It is a play on “The Maccabiah Games" which are the world’s largest Jewish athletic competition in the world, it brings together thousands of Jewish athletes from all over the world to compete in many different sports, athletes train for months and sometimes even years for this event. The Maccabiah takes place every four years in Israel. the last year it took place was 2017.
​“Bar mitzvah” means “age of the commandment”. This day marks a young man’s transition into adulthood within the religious community. It marks the beginning of many obligations and privileges as a Jewish adult. Perhaps a more appropriate definition would be “one who is prepared to take on the commandments,” because the bar mitzvah symbolizes the young person’s willingness to become responsible for the performance of mitzvot (good deeds) – the duties of Jewish life.
​
Over the last several years, Max has dedicated a great deal of time to study and learn how to read Hebrew so that he can read directly from the Torah. On the day of his Bar Mitzvah, which will be held in Israel on July 4th, Max will be called up to read from the torah, the Hebrew text of the Five books of Moses, for the first time.
What's a Bar Mitzvah?
Since Max's Bar Mitzvah service will be taking place in Israel, on what we know will be the trip of a lifetime, we want to celebrate with friends and family! So, to celebrate Max and this awesome accomplishment once we are back home, we invite you to join us at Smokey Glen Farm for and evening of "Maxcabiah Games." This will be a casual evening party with games, dancing and fun for kids of all ages!
