Brit Shalom Celebrants
Brit Shalom is a non-cutting naming ceremony that replaces Brit Milah (ritual circumcision) for newborn Jewish boys. Brit shalom can be similar to the naming ceremony traditionally used for baby girls. It may be performed by a Rabbi or other experienced lay leader. The ceremony has also been termed Alternative Brit (or Bris), Brit B'li Milah (Covenant without cutting) and Brit Chayim (Covenant of Life).
