From Ukraine to Jerusalem for a Bar Mitzvah at the Kotel
The Federation of Jewish Communities of Ukraine extends heartfelt congratulations to Grigoriy Urikh, son of Oleksandr Urikh – a trusted friend and dedicated partner of the FJCU – on his recent bar mitzvah.
The ceremony took place in Jerusalem, at a synagogue near the Kotel, one of the most sacred sites in the Jewish world. The event was organized with the support of FJCU Chairman Rabbi Mayer Stambler, who also led the ceremony and shared warm blessings with the young man and his family.
A bar mitzvah – “son of the commandment” – marks the moment when a Jewish boy becomes personally responsible for fulfilling the mitzvot. It is a significant spiritual milestone that deepens one’s connection to G-d, the Torah, and the Jewish people.
May this step be the beginning of a meaningful Jewish journey – toward Torah, chuppah, and good deeds.
