The ‘Kosher Café’ of Donetsk, Ukraine, recently hosted a unique event, which turned into a communal event: Miriam’s Bat Mitzvah. Together with her friends, she celebrated her big day after weeks of preparations.

After the formal part of the evening ended, lots of interesting contests, games, slide shows, festive treats and even a master-class given by the birthday girl – were enjoyed by the participants.

Thanks to the FJC’s efforts in reviving Jewish life in the FSU, Bar & Bat Mitzvah’s have once again become a common sight and are celebrated by the entire community who appreciate the value of these precious moments. [nggallery id=173]
