Last night I took the girls to the Simchat Torah service at Temple. It was also consecration, which is a service to mark the beginning of religious education for the Kindergarten religious school class. Caroline was very stressed out beforehand about everything from getting her picture taken with the clergy to having to go up on the bima, to dancing with the Torah for Simchat Torah. But she ended up having a great time.
With the rabbis and cantor:
On the bima seeing the Torahs and getting a special blessing:
Showing off her consecration certificate:
Unrolling the Torah to celebrate reaching the end of the Torah and starting to read it over at the beginning for the new year:
Dance party!
