Holidays

At JewBelong, we focus on what we call The Big Four Holidays (Passover, Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur and Hanukkah) plus Shabbat. Each holiday section includes a pretty fantastic booklet that you can print out (except Yom Kippur, which has a four-page cheat sheet). Or you can choose individual readings, songs, skits, etc. if the booklet is more than you want. There are plenty of other Jewish holidays, too. We don’t celebrate most of them either, but if you want to know what they are, our short descriptions will help you get started.

Even if you think the Four Questions were a Motown group.

Why make an account?

Because why use any of your precious brain cells to remember where you kept those great readings that you’ll use someday at Jeffrey’s B Mitzvah? Make an account, keep the readings there. Easy peasy. The only thing you’ll need to remember is your password, and from personal experience that’s hard enough.
