In Jewish tradition, a Torah is welcomed to the community as a new bride and groom are celebrated by their families and friends. The Torah is introduced under a traditional marriage canopy (Chuppah) and is accompanied by singing, dancing and a festive meal. Every community member is an integral part of the celebration - just as a family member is to the wedding. We rally in a joyous circle (hakafot) around the Torah, proclaiming: עם ישראל חי Am Yisroel Chai!
