RITUAL: Jewish Ceremonies & Traditions

Much of Jewish life is focused on rituals performed in synagogue, at home, or in the community. Some rituals like praying or giving Tzedakah can occur every day, others like Shabbat are weekly, and still others come up only once a year. Repeating these rituals fosters a sense of comfort and connection with God.
