Mazel tov! Believe it or not, we are already beginning to think about your child’s B’nai Mitzvah.

Submit this form to indicate your family's interest in your child's B'nai Mitzvah! This starts the process. Once submitted, you will hear from Emily Kieval, CBI Executive Director, at director@cbinorthampton.org about next steps.

Please don’t hesitate to email the office with any questions.
We are so excited to celebrate this milestone with you and your family!
 

We ask that each family become a member of Congregation B'nai Israel at the start of their child B'nai Mitzvah process. This supports our staffs ability to support your family through the process, and engages your family in the full breadth of CBI's community life.

If your family is not yet a member of CBI, you can become one easily by filling out our CBI Membership Form at a financial level that works for you.
