Bar\Bat Bracha\Mitzvah - The Blessing Ceremony

Here are the pictures from the ceremony in which Tommy, Ruthie, and I received our blessing. It was a wonderful time! ~ Hannah


Tommy was first: Ima giving her blessing.

Nearly all of the women were standing on one side of the room, and at this stage in the ceremony, we ran to join them; symbolizing the transition from girlhood to womanhood.
