We wanted to express again our sincere thanks and gratitude for the wonderful Bar Mitzvah experience for our son Cole during our recent trip to Israel. We feel so blessed to have found you both to officiate the service. It was so easy to work with Cantor Evan to arrange the Bar Mitzvah. The instructions on the service were clear, the study materials you provided were excellent, and Cole was well prepared for the service. We also appreciated our Skype sessions to review the D'var Torah and to help Cole better understand his Parsha and its meaning.
When we arrived at your synagogue in Jerusalem, we immediately felt at home. You warmly welcomed our family, got to know us, and made us feel at ease. We immediately responded to Rabbi Ada, her energy, and her confidence as a Jewish religious leader. We also appreciated Cantor Evan's proficiency, knowledge and calm demeanor.
The Bar Mitzvah ceremony at Robinson's Arch was beyond words. It was truly awe-inspiring to be there, surrounded by other Jews celebrating their Bar and Bat Mitzvahs. It was also incredible for us to share the experience together, as a family, men and women together, in the service. It was inspirational to have Rabbi Ada lead our service, and to listen to Cantor Evan's beautiful voice. We could not have dreamed of a better experience. It is our hope that everyone have as meaningful a Bar or Bat Mitzvah experience as we had. We absolutely will recommend you to anyone considering such a celebration in Israel, and will gladly be a reference to anyone with questions.
Warmest regards,
