Giving your Jewish Daughter a Hebrew Name
For thousands of years Jewish boys have been welcomed into the Jewish community with a bris (circumcision). In the past generation, new traditions have been created to welcome our daughters into the Jewish community as well. Rabbi Dalia Samansky, a Jen’s Lister, is available to help you create a beautiful ceremony to mark your daughter’s entry into the world. She can help you select a Jewish name for your sweet little bundle as well as create a ceremony your family will cherish forever. For more information email her at rabbisamansky@gmail.com. Testimonial – Rabbi Samansky performed a Simchat Bat (baby naming) for our daughter. It was such a pleasure working with her throughout the process. She is a mom and understands the little ones’ and tailors everything for each unique family situation. I highly recommend her services for a truly beautiful and memorable event. Thank you, oswaldandco@roadrunner.com.
