B'nei Mitzvah Planning

We're just beginning the Bar Mitzvah planning process with our oldest son. He had a bris on day 8 and a conversion in the mikveh when he was a few months old. Now we are talking to him about his Bar Mitzvah as a conscious choice on his part to accept his conversion and make an active commitment to living his life as a Jewish adult (!) male.

I'd love to compare notes and pursue an online discussion with families who are in the same place or who have been there/done that...

B'nei Mitzvah planning - moved

Since this "Faith-based..." section seems to be more focused on pre-adopt, I'm going to continue posting to this forum only in the other section.

To follow the journey (and, hopefully, weigh in with comments and share your own experiences), please go to "adoptive parents - Jewish adoptive parents - B'nei Mitzvah planning" on this board
