Torah Welcoming Celebration
Sunday, June 14 2026

In Jewish tradition, a Torah is welcomed to the community as a new bride and groom are celebrated by their families and friends.

The Torah is introduced under a traditional marriage canopy (Chuppah) and is accompanied by music and festivities. Every community member is an integral part of the celebration – just as a family member is to the wedding.
