My child is invited to a Bar/Bat/Bnei Mitzvah. What is the appropriate gift, and what does my child wear?

The gift is a personal choice. Gift certificates are always popular. In Judaism it is good luck to give monetary gifts in denominations of $18. The child should wear clothes that are appropriate for a religious service.

I am attending a funeral at your Temple. Is it appropriate to bring flowers?

Flowers are not customary in Jewish tradition. We suggest making a gift to charity in memory of the deceased. Families often name either a Temple fund or another organization as preferred recipients.
