Camp S’dei Chemed Bar-Mitzvah Pilgrimage:

The Bar Mitzvah comes and goes and what really changes?  How different does the bachur really feel?  He got a suit, he wears a hat, he is obligated to all the Mitzvot, he puts on Tefillin every day, but the day after the party is just another day.  

It doesn’t have to be that way, Camp S’dei Chemed Boys is providing a Bar Mitzvah opportunity of a life time that is going to prepare Bar Mitzvah boys in a way so that the day after  the party will not be ‘just another day’.

This summer we are offering a Bar Mitzvah special, inviting pre Bar Mitzvah boys on an unforgettable mystical journey into the secrets and mysteries of Tefillin, one of the three Mitzvot from the Torah that is called a sign between Hashem and Klal Yisroel (Shabbos and Bris Milah are the other two).   The boys are going to have the opportunity to learn about making Tefillin; the process of pressing and forming the leather into the perfectly square boxes by means of stepping back into time and exploring some of the most secret nooks and crannies of one of the oldest know crafts and watching the process that has been passed down from generation to generation.  We will be meeting the craftsmen, experience their creation while it’s being created and we will be making an everlasting relationship that is going to bring the boys into their Bar Mitzvah and change their lives forever.

That is where most tours usually end, you come and you see and you wish you could get more involved and are not allowed but Camp S’dei Chemed wants the best for its boys.  The field trip is only where the experience begins because then it’s time to roll up our sleeves and get our hands dirty and see how much we actually learned.  The boys are going to set up shop and learn how to paint a pair of Tefillin and as a grand conclusion they will be assisting in the assembly of a pair of Tefillin that will be taken home with them and worn at their Bar Mitzvah.

The day after the party will not be ‘just another day’ it will be the climax of a long awaited reunion of a heavily invested relationship; it will be a feeling of true transformation into a Bar Mitzvah.
We have reduced the price for pre-bar-mitzvah age boys to the first applicants.

Camp also offers a special price for Bar Mitzvah Age Boys (12-13). Our present to you!
