Mike R., October 27, 2012, Temple Shalom of Newton
Mike has been a good friend of yours since he joined the class at Rashi for 6th grade, and you realized how much you had in common, including Emagination camp, sports, and outwitting each other!
You gave an eloquent speech at his minyan, telling everyone what a good friend he is, recounting how you met, and then detailing your skype experiences last summer when he was in Italy and you were in China.
He did an excellent job at chanting the torah portion, and an equally excellent job at teaching the congregation about when it's ok to lie. You chose to do your mitzvah project together, and it's off to a good start. Here's to good friends!

Noah
Noah S., October 20, 2012, Congregation Kehillath Israel, Brookline, MA
Noah had the honor of the Parsha with his name, and he described in his d'var getting second chances, like the Biblical Noah did. Then he celebrated at Fenway Park, which was a thrill to old and young alike. The sign in the park was lit up congratulating Noah and his family, and you got to practice Blackjack with your friends at the gambling station!

Ashby L., Chabad Center of Lexington, October 13, 2012
Today we attended Ashby's Bar Mitzvah at Chabad. Ashby was in your preschool class at Chabad with Morah Elaine, but at the time, he went by the nickname Zoomy. He was all grown up but still shy when he chanted the haftorah and delivered his d'var on the first Parsha of the Torah. He spoke about Cain and Abel, and the relationships of brothers, of being patient and not acting out of emotion. And he ended by calling his Bar Mitzvah his own personal Genesis. Very well done.
Last week we attended Rohel Lise's Bat Mitzvah at Chabad also. Surrounded by her many brothers and sisters and their respective spouses, she gave a nice dvar on the festival of succot.
