== Abstract == | |||
''Celebrating Brit Shalom'' is a book on [[Brit Shalom|alternative bris]] for Jewish families opting out of [[circumcision]] and for the rabbis who serve them. Titled ''Celebrating Brit Shalom'', the book includes a choice of three complete services, all of which feature the cutting of a pomegranate as a new ritual act that replaces [[circumcision]]. The book also includes the sheet music to four original songs which are thematically tied to the ceremonies (recorded album available separately). | |||
= | Moss and Wald teamed up for ''Celebrating Brit Shalom'' after identifying a growing population of young families that are seeking information on alternative bris and, more specifically, finished ceremonies that can be either family-led or clergy-led. With parts for a leader, the parents, and traditionally bestowed honors such as “sandek,” ''Celebrating Brit Shalom'' is intended to be used as a prayer book and guide during the service. Guests can each have their own copy so they can follow along and participate in responsive readings. There is a place at the front of the book where parents can personalize guest copies with baby’s photo and details, making ''Celebrating Brit Shalom'' a memento that attendees can take home. | ||
