Brit Shalom ceremonies – resources

Listing here. Excerpt:

'This page includes a huge array of information about Jewish circumcision (brit milah), and its modern alternative, brit shalom.

It is a vast subject, and tends to provoke strong emotional reactions on both sides of the argument. While I am a deeply committed Jew, and active in the Jewish community as a prayer leader, teacher, cantor and celebrant, I oppose circumcision on anything other than urgent medical grounds, whether for an infant or an adult. I oppose brit milah as a practice, as well as circumcision of an adult male at the time of conversion to Judaism. Neither is necessary according to even the most stringent halachah (Jewish law), even though many Jews insist upon it. I profoundly support the practice of brit shalom – naming and welcoming infants into their Jewish life and people through a ceremony that does not include cutting anything or drawing any blood.'
